Man of the Match: Shaun Pollock

So South Africa have clinched a facile win and go up 2-1 in the five-match series. One more game left, can Pakistan come back to level the series. They have the talent, can they get it all together? This is Sriram Veera, signing off. Join George Binoy for the last game of the series. Good bye and good luck.

Abdul Razzaq to Smith, SIX, Crash! That booming slap slog does it. South Africa romp home to a 10-wicket win. Smith backed away to leg side and swung a length-delivery over the on side ring. Awesome strike to bring up the win. Both the batsmen had a party out there, none of the Pakistan players were invited to it. Balls disappeared over mid-on, mid-off, midwicket and where not as they bludgeoned 13 fours and 3 sixes.

    Shaun Pollock, supported by an assembly line of bristling seamers, set Pakistan up for the kill, before South Africa's openers finished it with a lack of mercy that Jack the Ripper would've shivered at

  • Winning momentum up for grabs

    Unless Pakistan can persuade the ICC to give them an extension on naming their World Cup squad this will be the last time these two teams play with a chance of swaying opinions
