The South Africa vs Pakistan 1st Test takes place at Supersport Park, Centurion from December 26 - 30, 2024. It is the first of a two-match series and follows a compelling set of white ball matches.
After a topsy turvy Test match, the Proteas are now on the verge of victory. They require just 121 more runs on day 4. They are three wickets down though, so the result is far from a formality. The excellent spell of Pakistani seam bowling that took those wickets came on the back of a second innings fightback. It left the visitors with a lead of 147. Earlier, they had another batting collapse and had Saud Shakeel to thank for posting a competitive score after the left-hander scored a brilliant 84.
The star of the South Africa attack was Marco Jansen, who took 6 for 52, including the crucial wicket of Shakeel. Kagiso Rabada picked up 2, reward for his hard work. There were some rain interruptions on day 3, but the home fans will be hoping the weather behaves and they see their side claim an important victory.
