Preview

The hosts, South Africa, are all set to turn their fortunes around against Pakistan in the third and final ODI of the series, slated to take place on December 22 at The Wandereres Stadium in Johannesburg. The visitors showcased a magnificent performance to clinch the ODI series against the Proteas with an 81-run win in the second match at Newlands Cricket Stadium in Cape Town, taking an unassailable lead of 2-0. An impressive batting performance from Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, and Kamran Ghulam, coupled with a magnificent bowling performance by Shaheen Shah Afridi, clinched Pakistan's third ODI series win and bolstered their Champions Trophy preparation, where the side aims to defend their title on their home turf.

This series win provided Mohammad Rizwan and his men with a significant morale boost ahead of the 2025 Champions Trophy. The side will be looking to maintain their dominating momentum heading in to the next game to mark a clean sweep against the Proteas.

On the other hand, for the Proteas, this loss showcases the need to address inconsistencies in their batting and rethink their tactical skills and aggressive approach. However, the side still has a chance in the final game of the series to avoid a shambolic clean sweep against the Pakistan side. The South African side, which suffered defeat against Australia in the 2023 ODI World Cup semi-final before Rohit Sharma and his men toppled them in the final game of the 2024 T20 World Cup, is desperately looking to win the next ICC event.
