Chasing South Africa's total of 341 for 6 in 50 overs, scored at a brisk pace of 6.82 runs per over, none of the Pakistan batsmen barring Zaman - who stood at the crease for 224 minutes and faced 155 deliveries - could stand firm against the home team bowlers. In the end, Pakistan managed 324 for 9, a shortfall of 17 runs.
