PAK vs SA 2nd Test Predicted XI, Live Streaming: Pakistan, who climbed to second place in the World Test Championship table after thrashing South Africa in the first Test, will face the Proteas again in the series-deciding second Test at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi from Monday.
Pakistan are likely to draft a spinner-friendly pitch in Rawalpindi, following the Lahore pitch's conquest in spinning a web, where Noman Ali bagged 10 wickets.
But South Africa will be strengthened by the comeback of Keshav Maharaj, who missed the first Test due to injury and will look to add his spin to the mix.
Toss: The toss between South Africa vs Pakistan will take place at 10:00 AM IST
Time: 10:30 AM IST, Monday October 20
Venue: Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi
