South Africa Claims T20 Series Over Pakistan as Final Match Abandoned Due to Rain
Persistent rain in Johannesburg forced the cancellation of the third T20 match, sealing a 2-0 series victory for South Africa.
- The third T20 match between South Africa and Pakistan was called off without a ball bowled due to rain and lightning at Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg.
- South Africa secured a 2-0 series win, marking their first bilateral T20 series victory since August 2022.
- Reeza Hendricks' 117 runs off 63 balls in the second T20 match played a pivotal role in South Africa's series win.
- Despite strong performances from Pakistan's Saim Ayub, including an unbeaten 98 in the second match, the team failed to secure a single win in the series.
- The two teams will now shift focus to a three-match ODI series starting on December 17 in Paarl, followed by two Test matches.
