Rising celebrity Saim Ayub struck his 2nd century of the collection — and his 3rd in 5 innings— as Pakistan finished a collection cleansweep over South Africa in the 3rd one-day global at the Wanderers Stadium on Sunday.
Left- handed opening up batsman Ayub made a shimmering 101 off 94 spheres in a Pakistan total amount of 308 for 9.
Heinrich Klaasen whipped 81 off 43 spheres for South Africa — however the hosts were defeated by 36 runs going after a changed target of 308. The suit was minimized to 47 overs a side as a result of rainfall.
Ayub, 22, struck 113 not out in the 2nd one-day video game versus Zimbabwe in Bulawayo last month and 109 in the collection opener versus South Africa in Paarl recently.
In in between his one-day looks he made an unbeaten 98 in the 2nd Twenty20 global versus South Africa in Centurion.
In comparison to Ayub’s kind, his opening up companion Abdullah Shafique was out for his 3rd succeeding duck after Pakistan were sent out in to bat.
But Ayub was rarely bothered as he played shots throughout the arch in collaborations of 114 with Babar Azam (52) and 93 with captain Mohammad Rizwan (53 ).
Ayub was up to debutant Corbin Bosch, captured behind trying an adventurous flick to leg, after striking 13 fours and 2 6s.
Bosch, the boy of the late Test and one-day global gamer Tertius Bosch, got a call-up after injuries struck South Africa’s quick bowling sources.
For the 3rd succeeding suit, Klaasen was the only South African to make a half-century. He maintained South Africa in advance of the needed run price till he was 6th guy out, captured on the square leg limit off Shaheen Shah Afridi with the total amount on 194 in the 29th over.
Ayub adhered to up his century by taking one for 34 in 10 overs with his combination of off-spin and carrom spheres, asserting the crucial arch of David Miller and creating one of the most affordable numbers by any type of bowler in the suit.
