Pakistan are in a commanding position in the first test match against South Africa and sooner or later they will surely take the lead against South Africa in this test match. Noman Ali backed by Sajid Khan and Salman Agha look to be in good wicket taking form and the pitch is suiting and helping their type of bowling. South Africa replying to Pakistan's total of 378 runs in Day2 of the test match are 216 for 6 with their tailenders exposed.
South Africa are also without their premier batsmen Temba Bavuma in this test match and without Keshav Maharaj their only quality spinner in this test match. With the absence of these quality players and match winners Pakistan definitely have an edge over South Africa in this test match.
In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan definitely have the ascendancy in this test match as they batted first on this pitch and batting last will be extremely difficult on this pitch as the wicket further deteriorates.
