SA vs PAK – 2nd T20I, Match Prediction – Who Will Win Today’s Match?
SA vs PAK: Heinrich Klaasen, Aiden Markram, Tabraiz Shamsi and Janneman Malan will be the players to watch from South Africa.
SA vs PAK: The 2nd T20I of the 4-Match series between South Africa and Pakistan will be played at the Imperial Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg on April 12th.
Pakistan have already won the ODI series, and now they would want to seal the T20I series in this game. Things are not so easy for the hosts as they are missing their top players, whereas the players like Temba Bavuma, Rassie van der Dussen, and Reeza Hendricks are also out of the series.
Before heading in 2nd T20I, lets have a look at highlights of first match. The first T20I was a game full of thrillers. The hosts and the visitors were involved in a nail-biting affair in the first of T20I at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg. But eventually, Babar Azam and Co chased down the target of 189 and won the game by four wickets.
Nevertheless, the Proteas are well and truly capable of leveling the series, and with the likes of Jenneman Malan and Tabraiz Shamsi looking in good form, South Africa will fancy their chances.
Heinrich Klaasen, Aiden Markram, Tabraiz Shamsi and Janneman Malan will be the players to watch from South Africa while Mohammad Rizwan, Babar Azam, Fakhar Zaman, and Faheem Ashraf will be the key players for the visitors.
