PAK vs SA 3rd T20 Prediction & Betting Tips
With series tied at 1-1, it's all set up for an enthralling encounter as Pakistan South Africa clash in the series decider. The match will be played at the Gaddafi Stadium and is set to get underway at 6:00 PM local time
South Africa ended their drought in Pakistan and pulled off a magnificent victory. They could have done that earlier, in the first T-20 as well but failed to finish the game after dominating it for most part of the match. To be fair, South Africa have been the better side between the two in both the T-20Is and would feel very confident going in to the match. Their bowling has been exceptional and hasn't allowed the Pakistan batsmen to cut loose, restricting them to below par total in both the matches. Mohammed Rizwan has been the standout performer for Pakistan with a century and a half century in the two games but other batsmen have been disappointing. On paper, Pakistan have a very good batting line up in Babar Azam, Haider Ali, Hussain Talat and Iftikhar Ahmed but we'll have to had the advantage to South Africa based on their form. Talking about South African batting, Reeza Hendricks has been very good for them. They'll be relieved to see David Miller and Henrich Klaasen finish the game.
Overall, looking at the inconsistency of the Pakistan batting, we think South Africa have a great chance of winning the match.

Pakistan Team News & Playing 11
PAK Team News
Pakistan played the same team in both matches so there's every reason to believe that they'll go in with the same XI if there is no injury to any player.
PAK Key Players
- Babar Azam - Babar Azam has not scored much in the two games but he's their best batsman. The format is such that two failures won't have an impact on the confidence of a batsmen. He's the no 1 batsmen for a reason and we think he'll come back hard in the next match.
- Mohammed Rizwan - Rizwan has been the standout performer for Pakistan in the two matches with a century and a half century. He's consistently scoring runs in the last few series and we back him to finish the series on a high.
- Usman Qadir - Usman Qadir had an off day in the second game but he's the biggest threat for South Africa on this rank turner.
PAK Team Form
Pakistan lost their last series to New Zealand but started with a win against South Africa. However, a loss in the previous game have once again proven that they're the most inconsistent team.
Pakistan Predicted Playing 11
Mohammed Rizwan(WK), Babar Azam (C), Haider Ali, Khushdil Shah, Hussain Talat, Iftikhar Ahmed, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammed Nawaz, Usman Qadir, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf.
South Africa Team News & Playing 11
SA Team News
Having won the previous game comfortably, South Africa too would look to go in with the same XI
SA Key Players
- Reeza Hendricks - Reeza Hendricks scored runs in both the T-20Is. Runs from the top is a must if South Africa has to get a decent score and they'll expect another good show from him as he's their best batsmen.
- David Miller - While Miller has not been in the best of form, he's a player that can turn the game on its head. He has plenty of experience of playing in these conditions and would look to go big in the next game.
- Tabraiz Shamsi - The surface will assist the spinners and we think Shamsi can play a big role in handing South Africa win.
SA Team Form
South Africa have been very good in the series. All their players performed well in the last game.
South Africa Predicted Playing 11
Janneman Malan, Reeza Hendricks, JJ Smuts, Davis Miller, Henrich Klaasen(c&wk), Pite van Biljon, Andile Phehlukwayo, Dwaine Pretorius, Glenton Stuurman, Lutho Sipamla, Tabraiz Shamsi
