Ahmed Shehzad began the run chase by hitting Dale Steyn for two fours in the second over, but he was bowled for 9 by Lonwabo Tsotsobe in the third•AFP
The pair were scoring at almost 10 an over before Amla was bowled for 31 by a fuller delivery from Mohammad Hafeez in the eighth over•Associated Press
South Africa tried to counterattack, but in the very next over, Henry Davids bottom-edged a delivery from Shahid Afridi on to his pads and stumps, leaving the hosts at 87 for 3 after 11 overs•Associated Press
Mohammad Hafeez and Nasir Jamshed added 32 in five overs and looked good to bring Pakistan's chase back on track. However, JP Duminy got the breakthrough for South Africa, dismissing Jamshed for 18. In the end, rain had the final say and Pakistan found themselves just short - South Africa were four runs ahead via D/L, when the chase was called off in the 10th over•AFP
With the flurry of wickets reducing South Africa's run-rate, Pakistan would have hoped to keep the score under 140. However, David Miller's 11-ball 19, that included two fours and a big six over deep midwicket, took South Africa to 153 for 7•Associated Press
