Pakistan will be up against South Africa in the decisive 3rd T20I at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore as both teams look to clinch the three-match series.
The series is currently tied 1-1, with South Africa
dominating the first match through a strong batting and bowling display and Pakistan bouncing back emphatically in the second with a nine-wicket win.
Pakistan is led by Salman Ali Agha as captain and includes key batsmen like Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan, who are making a comback in this series. Saim Ayub, who played a significant unbeaten 71 in the second T20I, is also a key part of this team and is expected to play a big part for the home side.
South Africa, captained by Donovan Ferreira for this series, will rely on opener Reeza Hendricks and Dewald Brevis for runs, supported by their pace and spin attack, including Kagiso Rabada and Corbin Bosch.
The final T20I promises a keen contest on a pitch that typically favors batsmen but also offers some assistance to spinners, making the strategies around bowling changes and batting order crucial.
