Summary Pakistan won the toss and decided to bowl first in the tour-opening Twenty20.
JOHANNESBURG (AP) - South Africa wasted a sparkling 72-run opening partnership between Quinton de Kock and Hashim Amla to post a modest 153-7 in the first Twenty20 against Pakistan on Wednesday.
De Kock made 43 off 33 and Amla added 31 off 20 to send South Africa racing away in the first match of Pakistan's short limited-over series at the Wanderers.
Pakistan's spinners pulled it back with Mohammad Hafeez (2-25) removing Amla and De Kock within nine runs of each other. Shahid Afridi's quicker ball then rattled into Henry Davids' stumps.
Captain Faf du Plessis attempted to re-ignite the innings with his 22 and David Miller helped with some big hitting from No. 6. The left-hander struck a six and two fours in his 19 from 11 balls.
