Durban, Feb 3 : Captain Javeria Khan’s unbeaten 56 helped Pakistan beat South Africa by eight runs via the Duckworth/Lewis Method in the rain-hit third T20I at Kingsmead here on Wednesday.
Javeria’s half century helped Pakistan to score 127 for six wickets in 20 overs and when South Africa reached 68 for four wickets in 12.3 overs play was stopped to due to rains, and later the match was called off.
South Africa were behind the required run rate at the time of the stoppage, and therefore Pakistan won. It serves as nothing more than a consolation win for the visitors as South Africa came into the match leading the three-match series 2-0.
