Speaking of the action of the match at the time of filling this copy, Pakistan had scored 113 runs for the loss of 3 wickets in 22 overs, having skipper Babar Azam and senior all-rounder Iftikhar Ahmed on the individual scores of 38 and 14 runs, respectively. They are batting first after winning the toss.
Mohammad Rizwan got out off Gerald Coetzee on the individual score of 31, hitting 4 fours and a six. Marco Jansen has scalped two wickets so far for the Proteas, alongside one wicket picked by Gerald Coetzee.
Notably, this match is a ‘do-or-die’ for Babar Azam’s men as they have already lost 3 out of the 5 matches, they played so far in the tournament. Pakistan won against the Netherlands and Sri Lanka followed by three successive defeats against the hosts, India, five-time champions Australia and the lower-ranked Afghanistan.
Following the ongoing clash against South Africa, the men in green are yet to face Bangladesh, New Zealand and England in their upcoming three matches of the ongoing ODI World Cup 2023 campaign.
