South Africa has set a big target of 353 runs for Pakistan in a crucial match of the tri-nation series at Karachi’s National Stadium. This is a must-win game for both teams as they fight for a place in the final, which will be played on Friday.
Heinrich Klaasen played a key role in South Africa’s strong total, scoring an impressive 87 runs from just 56 balls. He received good support from Temba Bavuma and Matthew Breetzke, who both scored half-centuries.
Pakistan’s bowlers tried to put up a fight, with Shaheen Afridi taking two wickets. Naseem Shah and Khushdil Shah also contributed by taking one wicket each. However, they could not stop South Africa from reaching a total of 352 runs.
Now, Pakistan will have to put up a strong batting performance to chase down this challenging target and keep their hopes alive in the series.
