South Africa (SA) and Pakistan (PAK) are set to clash in the second T20I of their three-match series on Thursday, December 13, at the Supersport Park in Centurion. Pakistan has a good record in T20Is against South Africa, winning 12 out of their 23 encounters and for this series, South Africa will be without their regular players including captain Aiden Markram, as well as players like Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Tristan Stubbs, and Marco Jansen. Heinrich Klassen will lead the side for them. On the other hand, Pakistan will be led by Rizwan and have named a full-strength squad for this series. South Africa won the opening match of the series by 13 runs. David Miller and George Linde stole the show and put up great performances. This should be a closely fought game.
