At Kingsmead in Durban, South Africa defeated Pakistan by 11 runs in the opening Twenty20 International, featuring outstanding performances from David Miller and George Linde.
George Linde’s all-around genius (48 off 24, 4/21) and David Miller’s blazing 82 off 40 led South Africa to an exciting 11-run victory over Pakistan. South Africa was held at 183/9 by Shaheen Afridi (3-22) and Abrar Ahmed (3-37), but Pakistan’s pursuit was unsuccessful. The middle-order problems and slow inning of Mohammad Rizwan (74 off 62) left too much for the last overs. South Africa won thanks to a clutch dismissal of Rizwan in the final over by debutant Kwena Maphaka.
Notwithstanding the defeat, Shaheen Afridi achieved an incredible milestone in the first game as the third bowler from Pakistan to reach 100 wickets in T20 Internationals. Shaheen also made history by becoming the first player from Pakistan to take 100 wickets in all three international cricket formats.
In order to level the three-match series against the Proteas, Pakistan will want to do better in the next game.
