Afghanistan and South Africa in UAE, 3 ODI Series, 2024 - 3rd ODI Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat first. Afghanistan managed only 169 runs lost of all wickets. South African bowlers are bolling very well. Lungi Ngidi, Nqabayomzi Peter and Andile Phehlukwayo are all taking 2 wickets for their bolling spell. South Africa easily managed their target in just 33 overs and lost of 3 wickets. Aiden Markram played a match-winning innings of 69 runs from 67 balls.
Afghanistan team lost wickets from the beginning and failed to bat under the pressure of the wicket, and lost all wickets for just 169 runs. But the South African team was very aggressive in batting and managed to create a decent reply in this match. As they performed well both with the ball and the bat, the long-lasting partnership of Markram and Tristan Stubbs helped South Africa win by just seven wickets. However, in this ODI match, Afghanistan won the tri-day match as they managed to win the first two, and in the last match, they did not put up a serious batting performance. I regret that the South African team lost to the Afghanistan team despite being strong in terms of playing cricket.
