PAK vs RSA, Dubai Pakistan won by 66 runs PAK - 209 (49.4 Ovs) RSA - 143-all out (40.4 Ovs) Now the series is level at 1-1. Both the teams have good strong bowling units and the batting has been a main concern. South Africa must find a way to tackle the spin trio. They have not reached 200 in both the matches. That will be a problem that they would have to assess in the following days. Pakistan, on the other hand have not got good starts with Shehzad the only one who has looked comfortable against the South African bowlers. They need to work hard to score more runs and give something for their bowlers to defend. Misbah:I think it was good performance from the team. The bowlers did a good job. If you look at this ground the average score is 220 to 230. The South African batting was struggling and an early wicket did the job. Hafeez was brilliant against the left-handers and Afridi provided wickets at regular intervals. Ajmal was as usual brilliant with the ball. It was a close game so there was a lot of emotions. There are a lot of areas to improve. Batsmen are getting starts but not converting them. Looking forward to the next match. Afridi:First, I would like to thank God. We learned a lot from the first match. Misbah and all the support stuff had a talk with us and told us to correct the mistakes. It is always special to play in UAE. My bowling is my main strength and batting is an added advantage. Shahid Afridiis theMan of the Matchfor his knock of 26 and 3 wickets with the ball.
