Pakistan will feel a bit hard done after losing the last game. The 3rd ODI was affected by rain as South Africa won by DLS method. Batting first, Pakistan scored 317/6. Imam-ul-Haq struck a brilliant century while Babar Azam and Mohammad Hafeez made half-centuries. It certainly could have been a winning score in case of a full game.

South Africa got off to a good start but lost 2 wickets for 79. The rain gods then intervened twice and batting became easy against the wet ball. Reeza Hendricks made an unbeaten 80 while the captain Faf du Plessis scored 40 not out. When the Proteas reached 187/2 in 33 overs, rain interrupted and didn’t permit any further play. The batting side was ahead in terms of the DLS par score and won the match by 13 runs.
