THE LOWDOWN
PAKISTAN
- Pakistan’s faint hopes of semi-final qualification are still alive following their six-wicket win against Netherlands which saw them negotiate a 92-run chase fairly comfortably.
- Realistically, Babar Azam’s side will need to win all of their remaining ‘Super 12’ fixtures including this one against South Africa and even that might not be enough for them.
SOUTH AFRICA
- South Africa come into this match as the only side unbeaten in the ‘Super 12’ stage of the competition, accruing five points from their three games played and putting themselves in an excellent position to reach the semi-finals.
- The Proteas’ most recent victory came against heavily fancied India, whom they defeated by five wickets after chasing down 134 with just two balls remaining.
THE PREDICTION
Pakistan are capable of beating any team in the competition if they were to produce their best cricket. However, so far they have played nowhere near close to the level that they are capable of and it’s difficult to see them being able to change that against a formidable looking South Africa team with stronger middle order batting depth. Both teams contain well-balanced bowling attacks capable of causing damage, but that extra firepower with the bat should lead the Proteas to another ‘Super 12’s’ victory here.
