00:29It is time for the series decider here at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
00:34The 30-20 eye of the Bank Al-Fala presents KFC Pakistan take on South Africa.
00:41At the toss, once again, three out of three in favor of Salman Ali Agha.
00:46And once again, he's elected to have a bowl first.
00:51Trio of changes for South Africa. First look at Pretorius and Simulani in this T20 eye series.
00:59Williams, who played the first T20 eye in Pindi, gets another opportunity.
01:04For the Pakistan side, a couple of changes on rotation policies, what the captain said.
01:10Shaheen Shahfedi and Osman Tariq, our own Osman Tariq, will be making his debut in the T20 eye format.
01:16But a very strong, formidable side and coming off a very good win.
01:22Gaddafi Stadium, we are all set and ready.
01:26It is Shaheen Shah Afridi to Quinton de Kock and the umpire calls play.
01:49Shaheen Shah Afridi into the team and Shaheen Shah Afridi draws first blood.
01:54He's 23rd wicket in the first over of T20 internationals.
02:00Then he breaks the back of South Africa.
02:02Quinton de Kock, he departs.
02:05He saw quite a bit of this last night.
02:09Another played on delivery for South Africa.
02:13Not a huge amount of swing, but more importantly, hitting his line in length and asking the right questions.
02:19And that sees the back of Quinton de Kock.
02:22And South Africa, 0-4-1.
02:25In at three, just 19, Luandre Pretorius.
02:29He's already made an impact at the international stage.
02:32He's up against Shaheen Shah Afridi with his tail up.
02:40He's up against Shaheen Shah Afridi, he has another 19-year-old, has to go for a duck.
02:46South Africa, 0-4-2.
02:49Well, well, well.
02:52The start that Pakistan would have wanted, not particularly his best delivery, but fortune favours the brave.
03:01Luandre Pretorius gets his first opportunity in the series and only gets the one ball.
03:07There he goes without troubling the scorers.
03:10South Africa in trouble.
03:120-4-2.
03:13South Africa, 0-4-2.
03:16And in to face the music is young Deval Brevis.
03:23Nicely played.
03:24Not trying to overhead all timing from Hendricks.
03:33That's a good hit.
03:36Very good hit.
03:38It was way too short.
03:41And that was the length he was hoping for.
03:44Brevis.
03:44And he bounced on it.
03:48Oh, goes again.
03:49Goes big.
03:51Massive six.
03:52Made his own length.
03:53He goes back.
03:55Once again, crushes it.
03:56Over the rope.
04:03Right.
04:04That should be his first wicket.
04:07And it's taken at long on.
04:08Osman Tariq.
04:10Makes his presence felt straight away.
04:14Not being able to do justice to his talent once again.
04:17Brevis.
04:18Perishing when he was looking good.
04:20There is that pause.
04:21Scarred in the air.
04:22Hitting the splice of the blade and gone.
04:25Yeah.
04:25Extra bounce on that occasion.
04:28Made the ball again.
04:29And very well judged catch from Barbarazam.
04:33Once again.
04:35South African innings.
04:37On a halt.
04:3821 was the contribution.
04:40It's 38 for 3.
04:43Renski.
04:44Is in.
04:45Strike rate of 118.94.
04:50Oh yes.
04:51Cleaned him up with a beauty.
04:53Played down the wrong line.
04:55His ability to strike the stumps.
04:58From almost every angle is pretty sensational.
05:03Pissed the ball up to the batsman.
05:04And got the pitch responding.
05:07Deviation of the surface.
05:08And Britske had no clue.
05:11He departs.
05:13Contribution 1.
05:14It's 42 for 4.
05:15This innings is railing.
05:19Kappner's in.
05:24Well that's the way you play him then.
05:27That's a massive 6.
05:28Really is a strong hit.
05:3150 comes up for South Africa.
05:32It's taken a lot of effort to get to a 50.
05:35But this is brilliantly played.
05:38Yeah it was the combination of line and length.
05:41Which was outside the off stump.
05:43And he cleared his front leg to be able.
05:46To hit the ball aerial.
05:48And did it efficiently.
05:52Big shot coming.
05:53Big shot flies.
05:55Exactly what was required.
05:57Mighty hit from Ferreira.
06:00Little semi to the leg side.
06:01To get the ball into the arc.
06:02Which he was after.
06:04He's an absolute powerful striker of the cricket ball.
06:12Excites to go a similar route.
06:15Barbar Azam does well.
06:18But only to then kick it back on to the boundary.
06:21So 6 followed by 4.
06:27This time he gets it.
06:29Right out of the middle.
06:30Ball flies once again.
06:32Make that 2 6s in the over.
06:3419 still 1 to go.
06:38Just outside the off stump.
06:40But he's a powerful hitter.
06:42And he's not just looking onside.
06:44He's looking offside there as well.
06:49Belted but straight into the hands of Salman Aliaga.
06:53Donovan Ferreira was going some guns.
06:56But his innings will draw to a close.
07:02Donovan Ferreira has made his intentions clear.
07:05But it's pace off again.
07:06Hitting it right at the bottom of the bat.
07:08But this is an excellent catch at mid-off.
07:11And it's the captain who completes the dismissal.
07:15The South African captain.
07:16He goes for a brief 29.
07:17South African are 76 for 5.
07:21George Linder makes his way out.
07:25Oh he's pulled it.
07:27He's pulled it straight to mid-wicket.
07:29Fahim Ashraf can do absolutely no wrong with ball in hand.
07:33Back to back wickets for Fahim Ashraf.
07:36Once again the change of pace.
07:39Well directed short delivery to start up.
07:45George Linder hit it straight down the throat of Hassan Nawaz.
07:50He's got 6 in 2 games Fahim Ashraf.
07:542 for 3 tonight so far.
07:58And a big wicket also.
08:00Goes for a Doug George Linder.
08:01South Africa 76 for 6.
08:05The crowd have been thoroughly entertained.
08:072 nights in a row now.
08:09The Qaddafi Stadium sells out.
08:16And that will help.
08:17Certainly will help South Africa scores.
08:21First boundary in 3 overs.
08:23And a much needed one.
08:30This time around picked.
08:31Picked by Rizan Hendricks.
08:33But he's picked the fielder.
08:34At the deep square fence.
08:37Usman Tariq.
08:38Number 2 on debut.
08:41Massively embraced by the captain as well.
08:44His first outing in Pakistan.
08:47T20 International Colors.
08:49And he gets his second wicket.
08:51And an important wicket as well.
08:52A little bit of air.
08:54And Rizan Hendricks.
08:55Not out of the middle of the bat.
08:57Great catch on the boundary.
08:59Hassan Nawaz does the clean up job.
09:02And take a bow is exactly what Usman Tariq does.
09:06Has 2 tonight so far.
09:08South Africa lose Rizan Hendricks for 34.
09:16Oh no.
09:17That is some shot.
09:19That is brilliant.
09:21Absolutely brilliant from the right-hander.
09:24Simulani there.
09:25Crashing it over cover for a grand six.
09:30Brilliant shot.
09:31Really a proper cringing shot.
09:32Over cover for a grand six.
09:37That's gone up in the air.
09:39This should be the first scale for Mirza.
09:42Shansha Freedy lined it up.
09:46He is off the mark in this innings.
09:48In this contest as well.
09:49Mirza picking up his first wicket.
09:52Simulani promised a lot.
09:55Perishing.
09:56Just when South Africa needed more out of him.
10:00Yeah, it's the delivery that has been so impactful.
10:05Particularly here at the Gaddafi Stadium over the last two games.
10:09The short delivery in particular.
10:11The change of pace.
10:12With great effect again on Dele.
10:14Decent hand in 13.
10:16South Africa still trailing.
10:171-1-8 for 8.
10:25That's lifted up in the air.
10:27Is it going to be caught?
10:28He's running in.
10:29Runs well.
10:31Catches it.
10:32Mohamed Nawaz with a brilliant catch.
10:34Really, it was athletic.
10:37He has the change of pace yet again.
10:40He has his mud off in the ring.
10:42Lazard Williams giving himself a little bit of room.
10:45Trying to access the offside.
10:46Well, he follows him.
10:48And in the end, just scoops it to mid-wicket.
10:51Decent catch.
10:52And he goes for five.
10:54South Africa.
10:55Nine down.
10:551.25.
10:59Oh, that's hit beautifully.
11:02Straight back for four.
11:03The balance was great.
11:05The bat speed was good.
11:07Smoothly done.
11:10Swings his bat.
11:12Oh, that's gone.
11:13Like a bullet.
11:15Gets it past.
11:16Barbara Azam at long on.
11:21Misses it completely.
11:23And they do not take that bye as well.
11:25So, 139 is what they get of the 20 overs.
11:31Clearly below par.
11:33But something to work with as a bowling side.
11:36Remember, this is the all-important final of the T20Is.
11:39And so, there will be extra cushion, extra layer of pressure on Pakistan once they come out to bat.
11:49Captain Ferreira with a couple of explosive sixes to get 29 of 14.
11:54But it's Bosch that finishes off strongly.
11:5714 runs in that last over.
11:59And gets them to that.
12:01Although, nine down.
12:03139.
12:04And a competitive score nonetheless on the surface.
12:06They've got to admire the effort of the bowler, Shaheen.
12:09Leading him with a couple of strikes in the first over.
12:13Three for 26 in his four.
12:14One for Mirza.
12:16Four overs.
12:17With an economy of four.
12:19And then Fahim, two wickets.
12:21Usman Tarek, two for 26 on debut.
12:24Just wonderful piece of bowling.
12:26Pakistan need 140 runs of 20 overs at 7 RPO.
12:38Here we go then.
12:43Yeah, this move has a potential.
12:45No doubt about it.
12:50Sabzada makes room.
12:52Goes up.
12:52Ariel gets it past the man at.
12:55Mid-off for a six.
12:57Slices it.
12:57Over the rope.
13:01He was aware where the gaps were.
13:03And there were no boundary riders.
13:05Mid-wicket.
13:06And a long on for the off spinner.
13:09And that's why he backed away from the stumps.
13:12And favored that area over long off.
13:16Sea of people around the dial.
13:19We've got to thank them again.
13:21We thanked them last night also.
13:26And taken at Miran.
13:27So this is the start that South Africans were hoping.
13:31Saimayu will be bitterly disappointed because he looked to be in great touch last night.
13:37Not to be tonight.
13:38A tame end to this knock.
13:40Yeah, that's what happens when you involve you dot deliveries to Saimayu.
13:47Something has to give.
13:49And he attempts.
13:51A stroke.
13:52Wasn't able to middle it.
13:55Toe him of the bat.
13:57A simple catch for the captain.
14:01The most runs by a batsman in T20i.
14:04He holds a record now, Barbara Azum.
14:10Nice.
14:11Very nice of the back foot.
14:13Hammered it past the infield for four.
14:19It's a pull shot.
14:21Plays it well into the gap for four.
14:23Strong hit.
14:25He's looking good.
14:26Off to a very good start here, Barbara Azum.
14:34Cut shot.
14:36What a hit that is.
14:38It was a great try at point.
14:39For a second I thought it was an unbelievable catch.
14:42But the try was unbelievable nevertheless.
14:45But what a cracker off the bat.
14:52As he got that out of the middle.
14:55One bounce into the fence.
14:58Knowing Fine square up in the ring.
15:00The shot was on.
15:08Belted down the ground.
15:12Absolutely belted past.
15:15Maybe case in point.
15:16Just there as to what Vernon Philander was saying.
15:23Just as I say that, that might be the first.
15:25That might be the first to spin.
15:27It is the first to spin.
15:30Courtesy to South African skipper.
15:32And Saibzad Farhan goes for 19.
15:35Yeah, he's made his intentions, cleared it Farhan.
15:37He was always going to target Donovan Ferreira.
15:39But it was the arm ball.
15:41But it was the arm ball.
15:41Quicker in speed.
15:42Caught it high up on the bat.
15:44And that's an excellent running catch by Metro Briar Scout in the deep.
15:48To conclude the dismissal.
15:49Yeah, it's a much needed wicket for South Africa.
15:51Yeah, it's coming in the form of their captain.
15:55Farhan goes for 19.
15:56Pakistan 44 for 2.
15:59Pakistan captain out at 4.
16:05Just sometimes 1 leads to 2.
16:09Excellent effort down at the boundary.
16:12A favor in Baba Razum's side.
16:16Yeah, it also brings up the 50 for Pakistan.
16:22Oh, that's a bad miss.
16:25It'll trickle down to the fence.
16:28South Africa.
16:30Doesn't allow, doesn't want this accident in the field.
16:35Shouldn't allow such easy runs.
16:42Well, that's crashed past the mid-off fielder for 4.
16:47They absolutely love it.
16:49Lapping it up.
16:50The fans, Baba Razum, is striking them good.
16:57Ah, beautiful shot.
16:59Really is a cracking cut shot.
17:03A classical cut shot.
17:09Don't worry.
17:10Keep happy.
17:11That emoji.
17:12And then gets it past the man at cover into the fence.
17:16This is heavenly stuff.
17:18This is heavenly stuff.
17:19This really is remarkable betting.
17:20Gets to a 50.
17:22Raises his back to the 32,000 people.
17:25People have largely turned up to watch this guy perform.
17:29And it's been magical theater from a guy who drives the ball magnificently.
17:35Back in form, back in touch, back in touch and guiding Pakistan home with a lovely 50.
17:46That's gone over the infield into the fence for four good thinking.
17:50He had lined up that field early on as well.
17:53This time, this time it's a bullseye from Baba.
17:56A hundred comes up for Pakistan.
17:58The flags are out.
18:02Cut shot, gets it past the two men closely bunched together to stop that shot.
18:10He's firing away Barbara Azam and a very, very classy stuff from him.
18:17Beauty personified, yeah, in Lahore.
18:23He's gone leg side and I think he's picked the gap.
18:25There wasn't much of a gap between fine leg and deep square, but it's the captain Salman Aliaga
18:32into the action with a boundary.
18:36That's in the air.
18:38Should be taken and it is.
18:41Got into two mind, Salman Aliaga whether to pull it or hit it over.
18:46Point.
18:47Yeah, it was a change of angle from Lazard Williams to come around the wicket.
18:52But it's just that extra bit of pace.
18:54You can see he's been done for pace.
18:57Marlene on team a touch quicker and it's an easier catch for
19:01Andilis and Malali.
19:03And at Cabal Region, well, the captain, he goes for 33, Pakistan, 120 for three.
19:09Well, Usman Khan to decrease for Pakistan.
19:14It's short, it's picked.
19:15Did he pick the field there?
19:17Oh, yes, I think he has.
19:20That is a massive wicket because it's the wicket of Baba Azam.
19:26I couldn't get the elevation.
19:28In fact, that roll of the race didn't work for Baba Azam.
19:33And that's why the ball went straight to the fielder.
19:37And it was nicely held by Hendricks.
19:40It's 125 for four.
19:44To the crease, Hassan Nawaz.
19:50Oh, what a shot that was.
19:52How about using the pace?
19:56Wow.
20:02Oh, a shot, it was picked.
20:04He's trying to go at a distance, but once again, it's the short ball that proves to be effective.
20:11And for a second time in a row, Reza Hendricks to complete a dismissal.
20:16Yeah, Hassan Nawaz tried to hit the ball.
20:18Ariel, unlike Baba Azam, who rolled the race to keep the ball all along the ground,
20:23but managed to hit the ball straight to the fielder.
20:26The same fielder.
20:28But this time around, it went high in the air.
20:31Just a reward for Williams, who worked so hard in this balling effort.
20:36Five was the contribution.
20:38It's 1.33 for five.
21:01Pakistan, in a strife after losing this wicket,
21:07it was a slow delivery.
21:11Went with the stroke a bit too early.
21:14And how many times we have seen here at Qadhafi Stadium,
21:17inside edge, onto the stumps.
21:19Goes without scoring.
21:24And that seals victory for Pakistan in this 3-T20 international series.
21:30Well, it's the third time they get the better off South Africa
21:32in the T20 international series.
21:35And they've done so convincingly this evening.
21:39A complete performance by the home team,
21:43with ball, first of all, setting the tone by that young man,
21:46Sayin Saar-Fridi.
21:49And then with a masterclass with bat in hand from Baba Azam,
21:53taking their team across the line this evening.
22:02Yeah, it was a low run chase,
22:03but there's only one name that stands out there.
22:05Baba Azam, 68 of 47 deliveries,
22:09formed the partnership with Salman Ali Aga, the captain,
22:13that really, really, really laid the foundation
22:15to get the team across the line this evening.
22:18Yeah, when you're chasing a small total,
22:21one big partnership does the job.
22:23And that partnership between Baba and the captain, Salman Ali Aga,
22:27sealed the fate of this game in favour of the Pakistani team.
22:30Well, the South African bowlers,
22:32they gave it their all.
22:33Not much runs to defend.
22:34And in the process,
22:36one for 30 for Ferreira,
22:37two for 24.
22:39Corbin Boss really being the pick of the South African seamers
22:41on this tour so far.
22:44And King Williams, two for 26.
22:47Yeah, this is the confirmation.
22:49Pakistan winning the third T20i,
22:53convincingly,
22:54and winning the series 2-1.
23:04That's right.
23:05That's right.
23:05Interesting.
23:05.
