In today's first ODI match between South Africa and Pakistan, both of them tried to do quite well, South Africa batted first and gave Pakistan a total target of 263 runs, this is a good target, South Africa was not too bad in terms of bowling either, to meet this target of 264 runs, Pakistan had to play till the very end, they lost a total of 8 wickets and achieved their target in 49.4 overs, they achieved their target with only two balls to spare and won the match, it can be said that both South Africa and Pakistan were quite good in this match.
If South Africa had played a little faster in the last 20 overs, their target could have been better because they did not score many runs in the end and played slowly and set a target of 264. Pakistan's batting was quite better in the first innings due to which they were able to score 87 runs with the first two players. After that, South Africa's good pressure succeeded and took 3 wickets owing to which Pakistan was under pressure but they played well and defeated South Africa in the first game and Pakistan's chances in this series improved and they will get better success after winning 1 game. The South African bowler did not stop the run in the end which could have given them the win. Congratulations to Pakistan for this win, they are playing with a lot of struggle.
