T20i

Gaddafi Stadium

Pakistan and South Africa will lock horns in the third and final ODI of the series at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, on November 1, 2025 (Saturday), at 8:30 PM IST. With both sides winning one game each in the ongoing series, they’ll be eager to win the final game to boost their morale ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup next year.

Facts:

  • Babar Azam is the highest run-scorer for Pakistan in the shortest format of the game, having scored 4234 runs in T20Is at an average of 39.57 at a strike rate of 128.77
  • In T20Is, Reeza Hendricks has 2449 runs at an average of 29.50 at a strike rate of 130.47.
  • Lungi Ngidi has taken 191 T20 wickets at an average of 21.49 in his T20 career

Pakistan vs South Africa Chance of Winning

Pakistan have many talented players, but as inconsistent as it gets. The likes of Saim Ayub, Babar Azam, Sahibzada Farhan, and Salman Agha have done well in patches, but consistency is hard to find. They’ll be excessively dependent on Salman Mirza, Naseem Shah, and Faheem Ashraf to do the catastrophic damage with the ball to ensure things work out fine.

On the other hand, South Africa would want Reeza Hendricks, Quinton de Kock, and Dewald Brevis to do the bulk of the work with the bat. While Lungi Ngidi and Corbin Bosch can handle major responsibilities well, Nandre Burger needs to be on the ball right from the word go to deliver something big.

  • PAK’s chance of winning is 59%
  • SA’s chance of winning is 41%

Pakistan opening partnership over 21.5 runs @ 1.87 (Parimatch)

Pakistan’s opening duo of Saim Ayub and Sahibzada Farhan have done well to set up the base for the batters down the order in recent times. While they stitched a 31-run partnership in the first game, they scored 54 runs for the opening wicket in the next match to make sure things are pretty much in order. The average opening partnership for them in the last 10 matches is 37, which tells you why they’ve been as impactful as they could be. So trust them to deliver big.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

PAK

Bet on Pakistan to win. Even though the Salman Agha-led side haven’t been as consistent as they’d have liked, the fact that South Africa continue to blow hot and cold is a bigger concern. Moreover, Saim Ayub and Faheem Ashraf have been outstanding with bat and ball respectively, as they showed in the second T20I, which ensures Pakistan hold the edge in home conditions.
