Match Review
On Thursday, November 3, at the Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney, Pakistan and South Africa played in the 36th match of the Super 12, T20 World Cup, 2022.
Pakistan gave a thorough showing with the bat, ball, and in the field. Throughout the entire innings, Babar's men continued to pick off wickets at regular intervals. In the match, Shadab Khan was fantastic with both the bat and the ball. Both innings of the game were turned by him.
Temba Bavuma, 36 (19), who appeared to be in good form at the moment, and Aiden Markram, 20 (14), who was also in good form, were both dismissed by the leg-spinner in the ninth over. This in turn had an impact on the side's needed DLS score following the rain delay. Pakistan's earlier batting performance was problematic at 47/4. The South African bowling was then completely destroyed by an 81-run stand for the sixth wicket between Shadab Khan 52(22) and Iftikhar in just 35 balls. It didn't help either that the proteas were missing their opportunities.
