Dwaine Pretorius and Bjorn Fortuin's late cameos helped South Africa remain alive in the contest till the last ball, with six runs needed but Faheem Ashraf held his nerves and bowled a yorker with which South Africa could pick only two runs. Pakistan managed to clinch what eventually proved to be a thriller, eventhough for most parts they looked comfortably ahead in the contest. Mohammad Rizwan's century in the end, proved to be the difference between the two sides as Pakistan went 1-up in the T20I series.
