Chennai: Pakistan is set to engage in a crucial World Cup 2023 encounter against South Africa in Chennai today (Friday). Team Green is determined to make a strong comeback after suffering three consecutive defeats.
Led by Babar Azam, the Pakistani side experienced an unexpected loss to Afghanistan at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Monday. This setback followed defeats to India and Australia in Ahmedabad and Bengaluru, respectively.
Notably, Pakistan’s key pacer, Hasan Ali, will miss the match against the Proteas due to a recent fever. The team is likely to include Mohammad Nawaz as a replacement. Furthermore, there are high expectations for Fakhar Zaman’s return to the playing XI, as he was seen practicing in the nets ahead of this critical fixture.
