PAK vs SA Pitch Report of Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium:
The pitch at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, the venue that will host the first T20I between Pakistan and South Africa, should be good for batting, with the ball coming nicely on the bat.
Meaning that the batters will enjoy batting on the surface, with the ball coming nicely on the bat.
Having said that, the batters will have to give the first couple of overs to the bowlers as the ball might do a bit when it's new, and the bowlers might find some swing upfront with the surface being hard with good bounce.
As far as the bowlers are concerned, they will have to make full use of the conditions, which are expected to be on the cooler side, as the game in question will start at night.
The spinners, on the other hand, might not have much of a say if the dw decides to play spoil sport, as it will get difficult for them to grip the ball if the case remains so, and the batter will be able to line them up in the middle overs.
However, the slow bowlers can prove to be handy if the conditions remain dry, as there might be some turn in the pitch which they will look to exploit to the best of their advantage.
The team that wins the toss should look to bowl first and restrict the opposition to a below-par total, as that has been the norm in T20 cricket in the last few years, and the team that bats first should look to score at least 180-190 runs.
Both teams are evenly matched as far as the composition is concerned and have some quality players at their disposal who can turn the match in their team's favor with bat, ball, or in the field.
However, Pakistan will start as the favorites to win the match, with them being the home team. The Salman Ali Agha-led side will be familiar with the conditions.
Conclusion
Pakistan would back themself to come good in all three departments of the game in the first T20I against South Africa.
South Africa, on the other hand, would also be confident of putting on a good show with bat, ball, and in the field and come out on top to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
