South Africa won the first T20I in Rawalpindi by 55 runs. George Linde's all-round performance and Reeza Hendricks' 60 off 40 balls played key roles in the top-order victory. South Africa put on a superb performance to take the lead in the three-match series.
Pakistan made a remarkable comeback in the second T20I in Lahore, winning by nine wickets. Pakistani fast bowlers, led by Salman Mirza and Faheem Ashraf, wreaked havoc, followed by a quickfire half-century from Sam Ayub to give the hosts an easy win.
The pitch for the third T20I between Pakistan and South Africa at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore is expected to be batsman-friendly, but will also assist fast bowlers. Fast bowlers have had moderate success on this ground in recent matches, with fast bowlers taking 44 wickets and spinners 25 in the last five T20Is in Lahore. The pitch has good carry and bounce, allowing bowlers to get movement with the new ball early on.
Batsmen can rely on bounce and play on the line, making it possible to post high scores, especially if they persist in the early overs. The average first innings score at this ground in recent T20Is has been around 190-191, suggesting the potential for high-scoring matches. The pitch will remain reliable as the match progresses, but dew may play a role, making batting easier in the second innings.
Aaj ka PAK vs SA match kon jeetega: Based on recent form, team strength, and pitch conditions, South Africa are strong contenders for victory in today's third T20I against Pakistan. South Africa is in good form and boasts a balanced team that combines strong batting and effective bowling. Playing at home, Pakistan will rely heavily on its spin attack and home conditions, but South Africa's consistency and strong all-round performance make them slight favorites in this match.
However, cricket can be unpredictable, and Pakistan is known for its aggressive nature at home, so the match could go either way. The outcome will depend on how well the teams adapt to today's pitch and weather conditions.
