The world’s top-ranked T20 cricket team, per the ICC, Pakistan, suffered just their third loss in their last 20 matches in the opener of their tour-concluding three-match T20 series in South Africa. But the hosts plan to rest their captain, Fas du Plessis, for the second match, giving the Men in Green an even better opportunity to even the series and put themselves in position to win it, in the match that will live stream from Johannesburg on Sunday.

To find out how to watch a live stream of the second T20 match of the three-game series between South Africa and Pakistan, see the streaming information at the bottom of this article. First ball is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. South Africa Standard Time on Sunday, February 3, at 34,000-capacity Wanderers Cricket Stadium in Illovo, Sandton, Johannesburg, South Africa.

In Pakistan, that start time will be 5:30 p.m. Pakistan Standard Time, while in India the match gets underway at 6 p.m. India Standard Time.

Du Plessis led the Proteas with 78 from just 45 balls in the Friday opener, per ESPN, and wicketkeeper Quentin de Kock, who missed the first T20, will also miss the second with an injury.

But Pakistan may have suffered from their own captain’s four-game suspension, after Sarfraz Ahmed made what was construed as a racist remark in his native Urdu language, as Al-Jazeera reported, during the second ODI of the five-game series won by South Africa. The Pakistan side appeared to lack cohesion during the first T20, a problem they will need to overcome to keep the series alive.

South Africa: 1. Reeza Hendricks, 2. Gihahn Cloete (wicketkeeper), 3. Rassie van der Dussen, 4. David Miller (captain), 5. Heinrich Klaasen, 6. Wiaan Mulder, 7. Chris Morris, 8. Andile Phehlukwayo, 9. Beuran Hendricks, 10. Junior Dala/Lutho Sipamla, 11. Tabraiz Shamsi.
