SA vs PAK 2nd ODI Live Score Updates
Kamran Ghulam walks in now at number 6, replacing his skipper, Mohammad Rizwan.
OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! What a stunner from the Under-19 sensation! Unbelievable athleticism. Slower delivery, outside off, fuller in length, Rizwan comes forward to push it down the ground but overcommits. He is unable to adjust to the change in pace and hence, spoons a return catch. However, the ball is going to the left of the bowler while Maphaka is going to his right, in his followthrough. He keeps his eyes on the ball and then dives forward to take a screamer. There was a bit of argy-bargy going on between these two and the teenager has won the battle.
FOUR! Fine shot. A touch short, outside off, Mohammad Rizwan rises with the bounce and punches it to the right of point. Beats the fielder there and even sweeper cover cannot sweep it off to his left. The skipper moves to 80 (81). His 7th four.
Misdirected delivery. Full and down the leg side, Agha clips it through mid-wicket for a run.
On a good length, outside off, Salman Agha waits for the ball to arrive and dabs it to the right of deep third. Enough time to return for the second by the time Tabraiz Shamsi clears it up.
Fuller and a touch wider outside off. Rizwan is a bit loose on the cover drive and hence, the ball goes a bit aerially through the covers. But no damage done as there is no one closing in. A single taken.
Fuller, around off, from left-arm around the wicket, Mohammad Rizwan pushes it towards mid off.
Fuller in length and on off, Salman Agha steps across and drills it straight back to the bowler.
Swing and a miss! Back of a length and outside off, shapes away a touch. Salman Agha slashes wildly at it but only to connect with thin air.
Touch fuller and on off, Mohammad Rizwan guides it towards deep third for a run.
Gets off the mark. Landed outside off, Salman gets across and works it through square leg for a single.
On a good length, around off, Agha looks to push at that but gets beaten.
Full and straight, Salman Agha gets across and pushes it straight to a widish mid on.
FOUR! Make that three in a row! 14 runs off the over! Kwena Maphaka goes short again and just around off. Mohammad Rizwan lets it come to him, uses the pace of the ball to ramp it to the deep third fence.
FOUR! TWO IN TWO! Kwena Maphaka overcorrects his length, goes a bit too full and around off. Mohammad Rizwan leans on to his drive nicely and creams it through covers for another boundary.
FOUR! Excellent shot! Kwena Maphaka goes for the short ball, but this one sits up nicely for the batter, on middle. Mohammad Rizwan gets in top of the bounce, swivels and pulls it away to the deep square leg fence for a boundary.
On a good length, around middle and off, angling away, Rizwan hops and tucks it towards short mid-wicket.
Around off, a touch fuller, pushed towards mid off.
Fuller, on middle, Mohammad Rizwan falls over a touch, but manages to clip it through mid-wicket. Wide open spaces over there and it presents the opportunity for a couple.
Salman Agha walks in at number 5, replacing Babar Azam. South Africa bring about a bowling change as well. It is the Under-19 sensation, Kwena Maphaka. 5-1-19-1 so far.
