Last World Cup meeting:
Both Pakistan and South Africa met each other in Match 3 of the Women’s World Cup 2017 at the Grace Road in Leicester, England. South Africa’s decision to field first did work as Pakistan lost an early wicket of Ayesha Zafar for just eight runs. Nahida Khan batted really well from one end while wickets kept falling on the other side on a regular interval. Once, Nahida was dismissed for 79, the Pakistan side could add just 49 runs after that and ended up posting 206 for 8 wickets in their 50 overs.
In reply, Laura Wolvaardt and Lizelle Lee gave the perfect start as they formed a 113 run partnership for the first wicket with both batters going past their half-centuries. However, an array of wickets fell after the duo perished and South Africa were reeling at 177 for seven with two new batters in the crease. Sune Luus (15*) and Shabnim Ismail’s (22*) crucial partnership for the eighth wicket took the South Africa side over the line with one over to go.
