Pakistan has lost their advantage on Day 3 of this test match as they batted poorly to score 167 all out to hand South Africa a target of 277 runs to win. The match is evenly poised as South Africa are 51 for two chasing 277 run target and both teams stand an even chance of fifty -fifty percent to win. If Pakistan are able to get either De Zorzi or Rickleton out early then they stand a good chance of winning.
Pakistani pacemen are proving to be absolutely ineffective on this pitch and no one is effective in taking wickets for Pakistan except Noman Ali. Noman Ali needs support from the other bowlers if they are to win this test match.
Pakistan are not so in a good position in order to win this test match because tomorrow will be the deciding fourth day of the match and the pitch would not be the fifth day pitch which becomes extremely difficult for batting.
In the end what I would like to say is that if Noman Ali gets support from other spin bowlers like Sajid Khan and Salman Agha then they should win otherwise South Africa will win the first test.
