48.4 to C Bosch, Shaheen's yorker barrage pays off! Bosch wanted to reverse-swat this away but Shaheen slips this yorker between his legs and under his bat and cleans him up. Shaheen's first wicket as ODI skipper. 262/9 | ||||||||||
| 9.1 | 1 | 40 | 3 | 4.36 | 35 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 2 | |
24.4 to Q de Kock, Chopped on! Naseem runs away in celebration as he gets a big breakthrough for Pakistan. He's looked good in this spell, and gets a wicket too. Back of length delivery angled in from outside off, de Kock brings his bat down to defend but only manages an inside edge onto the stumps. De Kock's comeback ends on 63, but he has laid down a solid platform here for South Africa. 141/2 38.6 to GF Linde, Nicked and caught behind! Naseem finally celebrates, quickly turns back and shows two thumbs up to the ump to check if his foot is all right. Length ball outside off, Linde hangs back and looks to cut, only gets the toe end and Rizwan doesn't miss. South Africa slide. 209/6 49.1 to LB Williams, Slower ball does in Williams. On a length and Williams is early into his swipe across the line. The offcutter pegs back middle stump and Naseem finishes with three. And Pakistan need 264 to win. 263/10 | ||||||||||

| 9 | 1 | 53 | 3 | 5.88 | 32 | 3 | 4 | 0 | 0 | |
36.2 to D Ferreira, Straight up... Babar doesn't miss! Much slower through the air from Abrar. He did not dart this in and gets rewarded. Ferreira never looked at ease in his stay in the middle. Looks to take the aggressive route. Tries to hit it over the bowler's head but slices it high in the air. Long-off makes no mistake. Not a memorable debut, at least with the bat, for Ferreira. 202/5 43.1 to MP Breetzke, Lofted straight to long-off! No fifty today for Breetzke Abrar tossed this up full outside off and Breetzke wanted to go wide of the long-off fielder. Gets it off the toe end and Nawaz does well to move to his left and take a good low catch, sliding to get into position. 228/7 43.2 to BC Fortuin, Big appeal, and the finger goes up immediately! Wrong'un does Fortuin in as he misses his flick. And this does look plumb. Impact is in line and that's crashing into middle and leg as per ball tracking, and Fortuin's stay is not a fortuitous one. And Abrar is on a hat-trick!. 228/8 | ||||||||||
| 8 | 0 | 39 | 2 | 4.87 | 22 | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0 | |
15.6 to LG Pretorius, it would have taken something special to break this partnership, and Mohammed Nawaz provides that moment of brilliance! Saim Ayub strikes again. This is on a length outside off, slowed down, and it grips and spins. Pretorius slashes at it and only manages a tame top edge with the ball ballooning behind point. Nawaz is quick to move to his right and puts in the dive to complete a brilliant catch. Pretorius' fun on debut comes to an end. 98/1 25.4 to T de Zorzi, Saim Ayub, the man with the golden arm! De Zorzi is deceived by this length ball that grips and spins and was early into the shot. The ball took the leading edge and just lobbed up back to Ayub for a simple catch. Suddenly, Pakistan will feel the momentum with them. 147/3 | ||||||||||
| 10 | 0 | 45 | 1 | 4.50 | 33 | 4 | 1 | 0 | 0 | |
33.1 to S Qeshile, And Nawaz shows how it's done! Catching practice for Fakhar and the partnership is broken. Tossed up ball lands on a length around middle and off. Qeshile goes back to cut but it spins and bounces, and he can only get a top edge. Backward point settles under it and that ends the 44-run stand. 191/4 | ||||||||||

45.5 to Hussain Talat, Oh, that's a brilliant catch running in from mid-off! Ngidi goes slower ball again and Talat was looking to work it leg side, well ahead of his body, and his bat face turns and the leading edge sees the ball lob up. Linde runs forward and dives to grab the chance. Maybe too little too late for South Africa, but it's a wicket nonetheless. 241/5 47.6 to Agha Salman, Skies this high and it's taken! The set Agha is gone! Looked to loft this full ball down the ground, but Ngidi went pace off again, running his fingers across the ball. Ends up slicing it into the air and Ferreira runs a long way from long-on to his left and slides under the ball. This match is still on. 252/7 | ||||||||||

15.2 to Saim Ayub, Ayub misses his cut and it's given! This was a length ball angling in from outside off. Ayub went for the cut but it went below the bat and he's struck in front. No bat involved. And that's three reds, and Ayub has to go. Ferreira has the breakthrough. Ball tracking shows that crashing into leg stump. Pakistan lose a review as Ayub walks back for 39. 87/1 17.3 to Fakhar Zaman, Fakhar picks out long-on! The set batters are gone, Ferreira accounting for both of them! Fakhar skipped out of his crease but couldn't get under the ball enough. Hits it flat to Fortuin, who makes no mistake. 102/2 | ||||||||||
| 6.4 | 0 | 32 | 2 | 4.80 | 21 | 3 | 0 | 2 | 0 | |
38.2 to Mohammad Rizwan, Straight to deep backward square leg! Is that the opening South Africa needed? Length ball angled in to Rizwan. He looks to flick it away with the angle. All he does is hit it straight to Pretorius, who takes a good, low catch. The 91-run partnership is broken, and it won't be easy to start against the old ball. 196/4 49.3 to Mohammad Nawaz, Oh my god, is there a twist still to come? Nawaz is gone! Back of length delivery, and it goes off the shoulder of the bat as Nawaz looks to fend and the ball chips up to point. 263/8 | ||||||||||
| 8 | 0 | 49 | 1 | 6.12 | 22 | 5 | 1 | 1 | 0 | |
46.5 to Hasan Nawaz, Oh, Linde has him stumped! Spins this away to beat him comprehensively as Nawaz skips out and looks to launch it down the ground, and it's easy work for Quinton de Kock! Not a lot of game awareness shown there by Nawaz, and I am sure Pakistan fans will be suddenly nervous!. 244/6 | ||||||||||
| 10 | 0 | 38 | 1 | 3.80 | 35 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |
19.5 to Babar Azam, Fortuin with a celebrappeal almost, and the umpire obliges! Babar is walking! What a huge moment this is! On a length outside off and this skids on with the angle and stays low. Babar can't get his bat down and is beaten on the inside edge and trapped in front. Doesn't bother with a review, and SA are buoyant. 105/3 | ||||||||||
