SA vs PAK, 2nd Test: South Africa seeks ruthless edge against Pakistan at Newlands

The Hindu  

South Africa has already sealed its place in this year’s World Test Championship final ahead of the second and final test against Pakistan at Newlands on Friday but will want to keep its momentum going in the longest format. South Africa defeated Pakistan by two wickets in a tense first test in Pretoria and has won its last six red ball matches in a row, its joint best run since a team record nine victories in succession in 2002 and 2003. “We definitely haven’t been clinical or ruthless when the opportunity or the situation is called upon,” South Africa captain Temba Bavuma said. All of us are mid-30s, late-30s, which shows that at some point guys are going to make some contribution to the team.” Pakistan will rue not closing out the first test having reduced South Africa to 99-8 chasing 148 on a tough Centurion Park wicket, only for all-rounder Marco Jansen and fast bowler Kagiso Rabada to carry the hosts to victory.
