The first T20I between South Africa and Pakistan will be played at Centurion on Saturday.
Pakistan head into the series on the back of a stunning ODI series win, with Babar Azam starring with the bat. Their bowling unit also fared well as the visitors reinstated their credentials in the white-ball format. Pakistan will be looking forward to winning the T20I series as well.
South Africa, despite all the injury concerns, have decent depth to counter the tourists. Led by Heinrich Klaasen, the Proteas will want to prove a point or two at the expense of Pakistan as the build-up to the T20 World Cup continues. With both teams looking to land the first blow in the series, we should be in for an exciting clash on Saturday.
