#PAKvsSA: South Africa wins by 6 wickets in 2nd T20I

South Africa has beaten Pakistan in the second T20I series by six wickets at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium here on Saturday (today).

Pite van Biljon and Reeza Hendricks scored 42 runs each as South Africa beat Pakistan to level the three-matches series 1-1.

Pakistan is currently 16-1 in 2.2 overs with Mohammad Rizwan (10*) and Haider Ali (1*).

On Thursday, Pakistan has won the first T20I series against South Africa by three runs and took the 1-0 lead.

Mohammad Rizwan shined as he scored his maiden T20I century for the Men In Green as he hit 104 for 64 balls against South Africa.

He was on song despite losing wickets at the other end after regular intervals. His magnificent knock included six boundaries and seven towering sixes.

Pakistan suffered a collapse after losing an early wicket of skipper Babar Azam who got run-out in the first over. Haider Ali was caught in the sixth over when Pakistan was 37-1. He scored 21 off 16 balls with the help of three sixes.

Pakistan scored 43-2 in the powerplay with Rizwan and Hussain Talat at the crease.

Thereafter, Rizwan didn’t look back and kept the scoreboard ticking. On the last ball of the 11th over, he raised the bat for scoring maiden T20I fifty but his mood looked different.

He helped Pakistan score 22 runs in the last two overs to set a 170-run target for South Africa.
