The 2021 South Africa tour of Pakistan has been a very tough one indeed for the visitors. South Africa recently was whitewashed in the Test series, losing 2-0 and honestly, they weren’t ever in the contest in either of the games. Now, they will fancy their chances as they play the shortest format of the game but remember, they’re coming off a whitewash against England in the T20 series at home as well.
As for Pakistan, they’ve got a better record in recent T20Is although they lost their last 3-game series in New Zealand 2-1. Prior to that, they clean swept Zimbabwe 3-0 at home and will be high on confidence after this massive victory in the Test series as well. It’s going to be a nice series before PSL 2021 begins in Pakistan! Keep reading for our complete PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) fantasy preview of the PAK vs SA 1st T20I…

Pakistan
After a fifty on T20I debut against England last year, Haider Ali had a bit of a dip in form but he’s got 5 fifties in his last 8 domestic innings and is back to big run scoring which means he’s one of the first people in our PAK vs SA fantasy team tonight. Someone who has massive hitting abilities but misfired right through the tour of New Zealand was Khushdil Shah but we’re picking him for these home games, as he bowls at times too.
Mohammad Rizwan has also managed to up his game ever since he was given the Test captaincy which means you have another top order batting choice if you need one for your PAK vs SA Dream11 team today. In the last Test against South Africa, Hasan Ali got 5-fers in both innings of the game and helped the home team go on to win the game as well, which means he’s high on confidence and should be selected as well.
South Africa
Captaining the side for this series is Heinrich Klaasen who scored only 20 and 7 in two recent games against England. Recently recovering from Covid, Klaasen will provide the firepower this team requires, hitting 3 fifties and a century in 5 games against Australia this time last year. Janneman Malan is another person who made his national debut in that series against Australia, also getting a maiden international century there.

The very experienced Jon-Jon Smuts is the safest bet for your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) PAK vs SA 1st T20I fantasy team today since he’s coming off a top score of 102 with the bat in his last 4 List A games for Warriors, where he got 6 wickets as well. Talking about wickets, Tabraiz Shamsi may enjoy bowling on these turning pitches and we’d like to have him as a bowling option through this series.
