South Africa vs Pakistan Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing 11 Updates for 3rd T20 - April 14th, 2021

The third T20I between Pakistan and South Africa takes place in Centurion on Wednesday.

South Africa stormed back to level the series earlier in the week, courtesy of a complete performance. While George Linde set up the Proteas with the ball, Aiden Markram and Heinrich Klaasen finished the job with the bat. South Africa will be eager to maintain their winning momentum on Saturday, but it's easier said than done.

For Pakistan, there's a lot of room for improvement in both departments. While Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan have scored some runs in previous games, their bowling attack needs to come up with the goods in the upcoming T20I. All eyes will be on Shaheen Afridi and Hasan Ali, who have been in fine form this series.

Although South Africa have the momentum heading into the fixture, Pakistan are the clear favorites, given their superior depth and experience. However, if the second T20I was any indication of things to come, we should be in for a cracking game of cricket in Centurion on Wednesday.

Pitch Report

The pitch in Centurion is a good one to bat on as there isn't much help on offer for the bowlers in terms of movement off the surface. However, extra bounce could come into play early in the innings. Although dew is also likely to play a role, the conditions shouldn't change too much across both innings. 170-180 should be a good total, with both sides likely to prefer chasing at the venue.
