The first test between South Africa and Pakistan started today at the Centurion. After winning the toss, Pakistan decided to bat and the visitors had a shaky start as they lost the top order quite early in the game. They lost Imam-Ul-Haq on a duck, Fakhar Zaman and Shan Masood got out on 12 and 19 runs respectively. Azhar Ali and Asad Shafiq made 36 and 7 runs respectively. It was only Babar Azam who fought hard and scored 71 runs from 79 balls.

However, Sarfraz Ahmed got out on a duck and his innings lasted for five minutes only. It was Duanne Olivier who got the wicket of the Pakistani captain. This did not go down well with the fans and they trolled him left, right and centre. Pakistan got bundled out on 181 runs.

“Pakistan's batting in tests outside Asia revolves around only two players - shafiq and Azhar Ali , if both fails , they would get all out under 200. Legend sarfraz Ahmed is just a player of words than action,” read a post.
