Pakistan and South Africa will face each other for the much-anticipated second Twenty 20 International today.
Shaheens are hoping to defeat the protease with a whitewash as they won the first T20I on April 10.
The Green Shirts successfully chased their highest T20I total to beat South Africa by 4 wickets in the last-over thriller.
Mohammad Rizwan’s 50-ball 74* and Faheem Ashraf’s explosive 14-ball 30 helped the visitors across the line.
