JOHANNESBURG, Feb 2: Graeme Smith and Loots Bosman pounded the Pakistan bowlers as South Africa raced to a ten-wicket win in a Twenty20 international at the Wanderers Stadium on Friday.
Pakistan struggled to 129 for eight after being sent in, with only two batsmen reaching 20 against South Africa's all-pace attack on a hot, humid evening in which the bowlers were able to swing the ball and get movement off the pitch. But any demons in the pitch seemed to disappear as Smith and Bosman went on an all-out attack.
They took South Africa to 132 for no wicket off only 11.3 overs. It was the highest partnership in the short history of 20-overs internationals.—AFP
