SA vs PAK Dream11: Pakistan will have the series win in their sight when they play hosts South Africa in the 2nd ODI match at the Wanderers Stadium on Sunday (IST). A 179-run partnership between Imam-ul-Haq and captain Babar Azam put Pakistan on course to a 3 wickets win over the Proteas while chasing 274 runs to win.
South Africa were reeling at 55/4 in the 1st inning, but Rassie van der Dussen and David Miller put on a 116-run partnership between them with the former scoring 123 runs. But the hosts were kept under the strings by the visitors, who bowled brilliantly at the death, never allowing SA to open their arms. Pakistan can win the 3-ODI series with the win in the second match.

Fantasy Cricket Tips, Captain & Differential Pick
Captain options
Babar Azam: Pakistan’s captain played a clutch inning while chasing a target in the SA vs PAK 1st ODI match. He is their best batsman and a good option for the captain role in Dream11 teams as well.
Last Match: 103 off 104 balls
Fours: 17
Sixes: 00
Rassie van der Dussen: A lynchpin in South Africa’s middle-order. He erupted with a brilliant century in the 1st ODI match and is more than capable of repeating the feat here.
Last Match: 123 off 134 balls
Fours: 10
Sixes: 02
Differential Picks:
Shaheen Afridi: Perhaps the best fats bowler in current Pakistan’s team. He can bowl with a sear pace and has the line and length to make life even more difficult for the batsmen.
David Miller and Kagiso Rabada are also worth the short from the South African team. Miller can be ultra-hot, while we all know how good Rabada is.
