South African fast bowler Bartman has been ruled out of the squad due to a knee injury
JOHANNESBURG – Pakistan defeated South Africa by 36 runs on DSL method in the third One Day International in Johannesburg on Sunday.
South Africa were blanked for the first time in a bilateral ODI series at home after losing by 36 runs to Pakistan in a rain-affected game at the Wanderers. Saim Ayub starred with bat and ball by scoring a second hundred in the series and with figures of 1 for 34. Debutant wristpinner Sufiyan Muqeem took 4 for 52 to again ask questions of South Africa's ability against spin.
Heinrich Klaasen was the only batter to score a half-century, and he did it in all three matches. He was also the leading run-scorer in the series with an average of 88.00 but had no support from anyone else until Corbin Bosch's 44-ball 40, on debut at No.8, kept South Africa in the chase. Pakistan could have lost Babar 14 balls after the restart, when he cut Marco Jansen to point. Bjorn Fortuin leapt to his right but got his hands in the wrong position and dropped the chance. Babar was on 10, and would take some time to get into his rhythm. Instead, It was Ayub who took South Africa on with two drives off a Rabada over in the "v" and then two pull shots off Jansen to end the Powerplay with Pakistan on 42 for 1.
Ayub became Bosch's first international wicket when he gloved him down leg to Heinrich Klaasen but left them in a good position. By then, Rizwan was on 45 off 44 balls and joined by big-hitting Kamran Ghulam. He could not repeat his antic from Newlands, where he smashed a 32-ball 63, but tried. He sliced Fortuin high above cover and was caught by Temba Bavuma.
It was always going to be a tough chase but South Africa's reply started strongly and they were 24 after three overs before Bavuma played Naseem Shah to Ayub at point. This is the second time in the series Bavuma has taken his right hand off the handle as he played a shot, which may concern South Africa ahead of the Tests. Bavuma has only just regained fitness after a left elbow injury.
