PAK Vs SA ODI And T20 Series Pakistan Tour Of South Africa 2021, Live Cricket Streaming

South Africa made the tough decision to tour Pakistan after a long period of 17 years. Pakistan is returning the favor to South African cricket board by touring South Africa when Australia has cancelled their tour for a three match Test series.

Cricket Australia cancelled the tour to South Africa in 11th hour when South Africa had already brought back their key players back before T20 series in Pakistan. This means not only South Africans will not be playing Australia but also that they might lose the T20 series against Pakistan as none of their main players are in the T20 squad in series against PAK.

Pakistan which outclassed South Africa in Tests and has already won the first T20 in Lahore is favorite to win the T20 series as well against a much young and inexperienced South African squad. Pakistan has now agreed to play 3 ODIs and 4 T20Is in South Africa, Which is a great news for South Africa cricket which is already going thorough tough financial crisis due to pandemic. England had previous cut short their tour of South Africa after two Proteas players and a hotel staff were tested positive of virus back in December 2020.
