After four matches in the ongoing tri-series in Pakistan, we have our first finalist, as New Zealand has secured their spot. Meanwhile, South Africa and hosts Pakistan are set to fight against each other, Whoever wins will play the final alongside New Zealand.
Pakistan suffered a heavy defeat despite being the hosts and, most importantly, entering the series as the in-form team. However, they failed to capitalise on that momentum. The Blackcaps dominated in a one-sided contest, winning by 78 runs, thanks to Glenn Phillips’ brilliant century that left the hosts struggling.
But if the men in green win today, things will get back on track. Pakistan will also go into the match as favourites against South Africa for one key reason—their net run rate of -0.249 is better than the Proteas’ -1.560. This means Pakistan needs a win with a decent margin, unlike South Africa, who need to produce something magical.
