SA levelled their four-match Twenty20 series with Pakistan after an improved performance from the bowlers helped them to a six-wicket win at the Wanderers in Johannesburg on Monday.

It was a marked improvement for the bowlers‚ who were not accurate with their lines and lengths in the opening match at the same venue on Saturday‚ as the visitors took the lead after chasing down their highest total in T20s.

Linde‚ who also starred with the bat with 20 runs off 10‚ struck with the first ball of the afternoon after dangerous Pakistan opener Mohammad Rizwan charged down and mistimed his shot and was caught at mid-off by Aiden Markram. Tabraiz Shamsi [1/22] accounted for Haider Ali’s wicket [12 off 9 balls] while Beuran Hendricks [0/27] bowled well but finished wicketless.

The Proteas started the chase well with a good opening partnership of 44 between openers Janneman Malan [15 runs off 10 balls] and Markram [54 runs off 30 balls] before the former was caught behind off the bowling of Shaheen Shah Afridi after 4.3 overs.
