SA won the first T20i of the series yesterday to lead the 3 T20i series 1-0. Reeza has carried his wonderful form in MSL into this T20i series. Faf batted very well too.He paced the innings very well and it needed a wonderful diving catch by Shady to dismiss him. Both of them made major contirbutions to help SA post 192. Babar Azam and Husain Talat had a good partnership, but SA managed to take wickets after that partnership was broken. Shoaib batted well but Pak were 6 runs short. After having played a bad innings of 10 runs from 12 balls, Miller was superb in the field with 2 direct hit run outs and 3 catches which won him the Man Of the Match.
This is the first match i have watched where the Man of the match was given for fielding performance only.
