The excitement continues in the ODI series as South Africa takes on Pakistan in the 2nd ODI at SuperSport Park, Centurion, on December 19, 2024.
Preview
South Africa is all set to lock horns against Pakistan in the second ODI of the three-match series slated to take place on December 19 at Newlands Stadium in Cape Town. The visitors have won the series-opening game and will be looking to win this game to seal the series after suffering a shambolic whitewash against the hosts in the T20Is. On the other hand, this game now becomes a must-win for the Proteas. However, the forthcoming second ODI game offers an opportunity for the home team to come back roaring and level the series.
Surprisingly, the home team went down in the series-opening game. After batting first, the South African team struggled to weather Salman Agha’s fiery spell and was just able to post 239 in the given 50 overs. During the chase, Pakistan lost back-to-back wickets of Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan, but opening batter Saim Ayub’s remarkable ton and Salman Agha’s crucial 82 off 90 balls steered the Men in Green to win the match by three wickets.
