Chokers choked again! SA loose by Solitary run

With the help of Junaid Khan in final over, Pakistan won the second ODI.

Junaid has taken Pakistan to a famous victory in its limited-overs history as a superb last over from Junaid Khan ensured the visitors just held on to a 1-run victory. It wouldn't have been amiss if, just a few overs back, you thought South Africa were cruising to victory, especially when Amla and AB were going great guns. But those late wickets, and needless from AB and Amla, hurt them in a big way. Pakistan are lucky to escape with victory when you consider how poorly they had bowled in patches, and were let down in the field by their fielders. This has been a match for the ages, and with that Pakistan, crucially, wrap up the series as they take an unassailable 2-0 lead with just one rubber to go.

Ahmed Shehzad's third ODI century and the 124-run stand he had with Sohaib Maqsood for the third wicket set Pakistan up to challenge for their first ever bilateral series win over South Africa. Umar Akmal, who was involved in Shehzad being run out, provided the late flourish, as Pakistan scored 82 in the final ten overs of a shortened game, despite Dale Steyn taking career-best figures.
