The South Africa vs Pakistan 2nd Test takes place at Newlands from January 3 – 7, 2024. These two evenly matched sides have played each other in all formats recently and this should be another enthralling encounter.
The hosts put on a dominant display on the opening day of this Test and only conslidated their position further on the second. This was largely down to the brilliance of Ryan Rickelton, who wracked up a stunning 259 runs. He wasn’t the only centurion either. The Proteas skipper Temba Bavuma was dismissed on 106 and Kyle Verreynne scored 100. The first innings ended with 615 on the board.
Progress continued with the ball, as South Africa took 3 early wickets. Kagiso Rabada was excellent, dismissing Shan Masood and Saud Shakeel for the loss of just 9 runs. They end the day with a massive lead of 551 runs. A daunting task for the visitors heading into day 3. Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan are at the crease and theirs is likely to be a crucial partnership if Pakistan are going to have any hope in this match.
