Pakistan were asked to bat first in their warm-up game against South Africa at the Tolerance Oval in Abu Dhabi, and lost skipper Babar Azam inside the powerplay, with the opener clean bowled by Kagiso Rabada.
Mohammad Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman led the rebuild, with the Proteas managing to keep the scoring rate down with the early fielding restrictions in place. But Zaman unleashed through the middle overs, slamming five sixes as he raced up through the gears before retiring out with 52 off 28 to his name.

Shoaib Malik’s 28(20) and Asif Ali’s explosive 32(18) kept the momentum going until Rabada returned to dismiss both in the penultimate over. And Hasan Ali hit a maximum of his own in the final over to help Pakistan to 186/6 off their full allocation.
Rassie van der Dussen and captain Temba Bavuma consolidated after Imad Wasim had removed both of the South African openers early. But there was still plenty for South Africa to do at the halfway stage of the chase, at 71/2 and with still 116 runs required. RDV picked up the chase along with his captain. He also received help from Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller.
