Pakistan vs South Africa
Today we have the 3rd ODI match between Pakistan and South Africa at Johannesburg. Pakistan has already won the ODI series but this match will be important for both teams.
The rain once again has interrupted the match right when it started and as usual Abdullah Shafique is currently not in his good form. He was out without making any score.
I think for the next Pakistan series he should be resting and try him in the next to next series and then final him for the Champions Trophy. He needs to be out against West Indies and should come for the New Zealand series. Also Pakistan would have to decide whether to keep him for Champions Trophy or whether to give any other player a chance.
In the first two matches, we have seen very good performance of Pakistani players. In both the matches, Pakistani batsmen and bowlers have done well. As a result, it is not difficult for Pakistan to defeat South Africa. In today's match, South Africa won the toss and decided to field. But South Africa's bowlers are not able to bowl well.
Pakistan has collected 76 runs in 15 overs. Pakistan has lost one wicket. Abdullah Shafique could not play well today. Pakistan team lost the wicket of Abdullah Shafique in the first over. But Saim Ayub and Babar are batting very well. Saim Ayub is unbeaten with 47 runs.
