Andile Phehlukwayo to Mohammad Nawaz. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to mid off for 1 run, fielded by Miller. Pakistan ends up scoring 169-6. Rizwan's innings looked solid to the eye and his shots were extraordinary. He toiled the in-experienced South African bowlers to the core. On behalf of South Africa, Phehlukwayo was the only bowler who created chances of getting a wicket. So a decent score on the board. Will South Africa chase this down or will Pakistan get the better of them? Join us for the run-chase, shortly.

Pakistan held their nerve at the crunch stages and thus emerged victories. Pakistan win by three runs. Rizwan's maiden century nicely set things up for Pakistan. 170 runs on the board with an inexperienced batting line up that South Africa has, its always going to be tough. Yet, South Africa showed resilience and made 166 odd runs. It indeed was a fantastic game. Mohammad Rizwan is adjudged the player of the match for his explosive batting. Do join us for the second T20I game on 13th of February. Until then, cheers.
