OUT! Caught. Sufiyan Muqeem to George Linde. Left-Arm Leg Spin length ball, outside off stump on the front foot slog sweeping, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep mid wicket, caught by Khan. That concludes the first innings. Despite early struggles from their top order, South Africa have posted a competitive total. David Miller was the standout performer, blasting 82 runs from 40 balls and playing a pivotal role in propelling his side to a strong position. George Linde also made a valuable contribution with 48 runs. For Pakistan, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Abrar Ahmed both claimed three wickets, with Afridi marking a milestone by taking his 100th T20I wicket. Stay tuned as we head into the run chase.
