PAK vs SA: South Africa Look To Square Series Against Pakistan

By IANS News February 03, 2021 • 22:57 PM View: 1340

South Africa will look to square the series when they face host Pakistan in the second Test here from Thursday on a pitch that has traditionally provided pace bowlers more help than in Karachi, the venue of the first Test.

Pakistan won the first Test by seven wickets, but they will be wary of a South Africa team that is likely to come hard at them in what would be Quinton de Kock-led team's final Test match of the season after Australia postponed their tour to South Africa.
