PAK vs SA Live Cricket Score

0.3 OUT! TAKEN! Nandre Burger strikes first, and what a start this is from the Proteas! He steams over the stumps and bends his back to offer a shorter one on off and middle. Fakhar Zaman looks to pull it away, but the ball gets a bit of extra bounce from the track. The ball hits the top edge of the willow and loops behind the stumps, much short of the keeper. Quinton de Kock judges the ball well and dives forward to pouch it safely into his gloves. Fakhar walks back for a duck, and Pakistan are rocked early! 1/1

24.3 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! The change to bring Corbin Bosch back into the attack has worked for the Proteas! Bosch delivers it fuller, pitching it on off and shaping it away from the left-handed batter. Saim Ayub covers the stumps and looks to drive it crisply but ends up putting a bit of bottom hand onto the shot. The ball flies flat toward the left of the bowler. This is outstanding from Bosch as in his followthrough, he drops low to the left and scoops it up with a slide. Saim Ayub has to depart after a knock of 53 runs off 66 deliveries. Pakistan are 114/4! 114/4

4.1 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! That's a big wicket for South Africa! Nandre Burger scoots from over the stumps, pitches it on middle, on a good length, but angles it away. Babar Azam gets squared up as he expects the ball to nip back at him, but the ball catches the outer edge and zips toward the left of the first slip fielder. Donovan Ferreira is the man who flies away and takes a spectacular two-handed catch to get the second wicket. Babar falls for 11 off 13, and Pakistan are 17/2! 17/2

4.5 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Nandre Burger is all pumped up and he is enjoying it! He bowls it back of a length, pitches it just outside off stump and shapes it away from the right-hander. Mohammad Rizwan hangs back and tries to steer the delivery toward point, but changes his mind and ends up trying to make a leave. The ball hits the underedge while Rizwan is retreating his willow, and it clips the off stump. Pakistan three down already, and all three taken by Burger. 22/3

41 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Corbin Bosch has the last laugh here! He steams in from over the wicket, serves a fine yorker, on middle. Salman Agha looks to whip it across the line, but his head falls a bit while playing that shot. He is also late to get his bat down as the ball goes through to shatter the stumps. Bosch is pumped up here with that wicket. Agha walks back for a fine 69 off 106, and Pakistan are 190/6! 190/6

30 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! That's a soft dismissal. Spin working for South Africa! Nqabayomzi Peter bowls a quicker one, on off, and shorter on length. Hussain Talat hangs back and looks to block it but the ball hits the upper part of his bat. It lobs back towards Nqabayomzi Peter who makes no mistake. 131/5

49.5 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Nqabayomzi Peter gets his third wicket! He bowls it fuller, around off. Mohammad Nawaz takes a step across the stump to swat it across the line, but fails to get an ideal connection. The ball hits the upper half of the willow and loops toward the vacant mid-wicket region. Peter sprints to get under the skier and reverse scoop it around his chest. 263/9

46.5 OUT! TAKEN! Nandre Burger gets a much-needed breakthrough for South Africa. He bangs in a bouncer, slower again and on middle. Faheem Ashraf tries to take it on and goes for the pull. However, he has to generate all the power by himself, which he does, but unfortunately, hits it straight towards deep backward square leg. Lhuan-dre Pretorius, who is stationed there, moves to his left and takes a good catch. Ashraf walks back for a fiery 28 off 18, and Pakistan are 233/7! 233/7

47.1 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Nqabayomzi Peter gets his second now! He bowls this quicker, short and well outside off, keeping it away from the batter. Shaheen Afridi tries to drag his pull across the line but gets a top edge. Peter calls for it, runs to his right, and takes it safely into his hands. Pakistan are 234/8 now! 234/8

11.5 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! Mohammad Wasim gets the opening breakthrough for Pakistan! He pitches it up and just outside off, shaping it away from the left-hander. Lhuan-dre Pretorius, with no footwork, crouches low and looks to punch it away, but misses. The ball kisses the outside edge of the blade and zips away from the keeper. Credit to Mohammad Rizwan behind the stumps, who dives to his left to glove it safely. The crowd has awakened and they are roaring! 81/1

34.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Pakistan get the breakthrough! But way too late. On a length, around the pads, Tony de Zorzi looks to flick this around mid-wicket. Closes the bat face early and gets the leading edge. The ball loops low toward Saim Ayub at the point region. Saim makes no mistake as he takes the dolly nice and clean. Tony de Zorzi departs after scoring 76. 234/2
