The first twenty20 international between Pakistan and South Africa was a one sided affair with South Africa winning by 55 runs. Considering Pakistan was at full strength and South Africa had a second string team missing key six regular players this result came as a surprise.
I think Pakistani selectors made the mistake of not selecting Fakhar Zaman and instead selecting Saim Ayub who is badly not in form in international cricket of late. Fakhar Zaman is also a more effective striker of the ball than Saim Ayub. Also the inform Muhammad Rizwan should have been selected instead of tried and tested Usman Khan as wicket keeper batsman.
In the end what I would like to say is that if Babar Azam starts scoring runs then Pakistan should beat South Africa in atleast one of the remaining two games.
