The 2nd T20I between South Africa and Pakistan is underway at the Supersport Park in Centurion. Pakistan won the toss and opted to bat first. The decision did not go in their favour as the visitors lost their skipper early in the innings.

Mohammad Rizwan failed to replicate his first match heroics and returned to the pavilion with a low score of 11 (13) that featured just a solitary four. Rizwan looked uncomfortable with the pace from the first delivery. Even on the delivery that dismissed him, he lost control off the bat. 

Rizwan's Uncomfortable Stay Comes To An End

Meanwhile, another moment from the first innings has gone viral, where Rizwan lost his balance while trying to hit a big shot off the first ball of the 4th over. 

Rizwan Surprised By Pace At Centurion

Rizwan was first tested by 18-year-old Kwena Maphaka, who bowled a brilliant short-pitched delivery that took Rizwan by surprise and he jumped in the air to play that ball. Later, he was troubled by Baartman and threw his wicket away just three balls after this incident when he lost his balance.

At the time of writing this article, Pakistan are unfazed by the wicket as Babar Azam started his innings with two back-to-back boundaries. Further, Saim Ayub is also going strongly and has amassed 18 (17). Pakistan are 39/1 after 5.4 overs. It is worth noting that Pakistan have a great track record playing at the Centurion against South Africa.
