🏏 2nd T20I (N), Benoni – Pakistan Women tour of South Africa, February 13, 2026

South Africa Women and Pakistan Women face off in the second T20I of the series at Willowmoore Park in Benoni, with the contest set to be played under lights.

The hosts will be aiming to build momentum in home conditions, where pace and bounce traditionally offer assistance early on before the surface settles for strokeplay. South Africa’s depth in both seam and spin provides balance, and they will look to assert control in the powerplay with both bat and ball.

Pakistan Women, meanwhile, will be seeking a sharper all-round performance. Their batting unit will need stronger partnerships at the top to counter South Africa’s new-ball threat, while their spinners could play a crucial role during the middle overs on what is often a gripping surface in Benoni.

Fielding and execution at the death are likely to prove decisive. Under lights, dew could influence captaincy decisions, making the toss an important factor. Teams may prefer chasing if conditions ease later in the evening.

With the series on the line, expect an intense contest as both sides look to seize control before the decider.
