Fantasy Cricket Tips for the third T20I between Pakistan and South Africa

The third T20I between Pakistan and South Africa will take place at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Sunday.

South Africa dealt the hosts a reality check when Dwaine Pretorius' five-wicket haul helped the visitors level the series on Saturday. Courtesy of the six-wicket win powered by sizeable contributions from Reeza Hendricks and Pite van Biljon, the Proteas will enter the series-decider with momentum on their side.

However, they will need to be wary of Babar Azam and co, who are eyeing a historic series win in Lahore. A couple of changes are expected in the Pakistan team, although their team composition is unlikely to be altered significantly.

Pakistan enter this game as the clear favourites, although South Africa have shown that they can beat the hosts in their own backyard. With the series on the line, another cracking game beckons at the Gaddafi Stadium between two of the best cricketing nations in the world,

Pitch Report

The pitch is slightly on the slower side, but there should be some swing on offer for the pacers. The batsmen will look to bide their time in the middle before going big, a ploy that could either way, though.

The spinners could have a big say in the proceedings, as this will be the second game in as many days at the venue. Both teams will look to bat first after winning the toss, with 150-160 runs likely to be a par-score.
