Pakistan vs South Africa Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing-11 Updates for 2nd T20I - Feb 13th, 2021

The second T20I between Pakistan and South Africa takes place at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore on Saturday.

Hosts Pakistan got the better of South Africa in the first T20I, courtesy Mohammad Rizwan's maiden T20I ton. Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi underwhelmed with bat and ball respectively, but Pakistan's superior depth and balance saw them edge out the Proteas by three runs.

With momentum on their side, the home side will fancy a win to take an unassailable lead in the series. But they will have to be wary of the visitors. Despite missing several first-team regulars, South Africa gave a good account of themselves in the first T20I.

Andile Phehlukwayo and Janneman Malan particularly stood out. However, South Africa's pace attack needs to step up. A lot will also ride on the shoulders of captain Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller, as they have ample experience in the shortest format of the game

While Pakistan have momentum and experience and are the favourites in the game, the South Africans are more than capable of springing an upset.

With their spinners proving to be effective in the first T20I, the Proteas will fancy their chances of levelling the series in what could be another entertaining game at the Gaddafi Stadium.
