Both teams last played a T20I in the T20 World Cup. With the ODI series ending in a 1-1 draw, both sides will be eager to come out on top in the shortest format of the game.

SuperSport Park Pitch Report

SuperSport Park in Centurion is known for being a batsman-friendly surface, particularly in T20 cricket. The pitch is traditionally hard and flat, which means that batsmen can expect good bounce and carry off the surface. The ball tends to come on to the bat nicely, making it easier for the batsmen to play their shots. With short square boundaries, there are plenty of runs to be had. The side winning the toss might opt to bat first.

Last Result at the Venue

The last T20I here was played in April 2021 between South Africa and Pakistan. Pakistan won the game batting second chasing 144 in a tense last ball finish.
