South Africa vs Pakistan 2021, 2nd ODI: Pitch Report
The Wanderers Stadium (Johannesburg) will host this ODI between South Africa and Pakistan. In early January 2021, this venue hosted a Test match between South Africa and Sri Lanka. Last time, this venue hosted an ODI on 9th February 2020 during an ODI match between the hosts’ Proteas and the visitors England.
In all the last five ODIs at this venue, only the chasing teams managed to achieve victories (including one rain-curtailed chasing) while the first batting teams always failed to score at least 300 runs. This venue is famous for chasing the world-record ODI target of 435 runs by the hosts’ Proteas against Australia on 12th March 2006. But since then, there is only one more successful 300+ ODI chasing at this venue.
Apart from the batsmen, the pacers also enjoy this ODI venue.
