South Africa and Pakistan trolled for wearing almost similar jerseys in the first ODI

New Delhi: A three-match ODI series is being played between South Africa and Pakistan and guess what got everyone’s attention. The first ODI ended with the thrilling last-ball finish as the visitors gave their best to prevent a late collapse. Pakistan is now leading the series 1-0.

But people were not interested in the match, there was another aspect which caught everybody’s attention. The two teams were wearing very similar jerseys.

Players of both South Africa and Pakistan were sporting dark green lowers with lighter shaded green shirts which left everybody confused. A new cricket fan would’ve faced huge difficulty to tell them apart. Even the commentators were heard making fun of it during live commentary while also saying that one of the teams should have sported a different jersey to clear the confusion.

Match Summary

Rassie van der Dussen’s ton went in vain as Pakistan survived Anrich Nortje’s havoc to beat South Africa by three wickets in the first ODI on Friday. With this thrilling win, Pakistan has taken a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series. The second game will be played on Sunday at The Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg.

South Africa was reduced to 55/4, but the hosts recovered well thanks to David Miller’s fifty and van der Dussen’s hundred, and the Proteas posted 273 in the 50 overs.

However, Azam’s masterclass ton and gutsy knock by Mohammad Rizwan and Shadab Khan ensured the visitors don’t falter in the game which saw too many twists and turns.
