Pakistan fell short in the second ODI against South Africa as the hosts comfortably chased down a 270-run target to level the three-match series 1–1 at the Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad.
On a surface where 269 initially appeared to be a competitive total, the visiting side reached the target with ease, finishing the chase with 59 balls to spare.
After the match, Pakistan’s ODI skipper, Shaheen Shah Afridi, acknowledged that dropped catches proved costly and ultimately made the difference in the game.
