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.

Afghanistan struggled with batting and only scored 169 runs due to pressure. On the other hand South Africa bold batting led to seven wicket win thanks to Markram and Tristan Stubbs strong partnership. By the way Afghanistan won the overall series their batting was inconsistent. It's surprising South Africa lost, given their strength in cricket. This series win shows Afghanistan is improving in international cricket. And they are now able to compete with top teams especially due to their bowling.
