RSA Vs PAK, 2nd ODI: Pakistan Win By 81 Runs, Claim Fifth Straight Bilateral Series Win
Pakistan won a second straight major one-day international series away from home when they beat South Africa by 81 runs at Newlands on Thursday (December 19, 2024). After beating Australia 2-1 last month, Pakistan have trumped the Proteas 2-0 with a game to spare. Half-centuries by Babar Azam, captain Mohammad Rizwan and allrounder Kamran Ghulam staked Pakistan to 329 all out. Heinrich Klaasen hit 97 but South Africa바카라™s chase was strangled by Pakistan, and fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi ended the last meaningful resistance with three wickets in three overs. Klaasen was the last man out on 248 in the 44th over. Pakistan바카라™s fifth successive bilateral ODI series win puts them in good stead for the Champions Trophy they will host in February.
