South Africa Sweep Series 2-0

Beat Pakistan by 10 wickets on day four of the second Test at Newlands

South Africa earned a seventh successive win after beating Pakistan by 10 wickets on day four of the second Test at Newlands on Monday and swept the series 2-0.

Pakistan, which was forced to follow on after 194 in the first innings, fought hard to avert an innings defeat with only 10 batters after Saim Ayub was injured on the first day. It was bowled out for 478 in the last session, leaving South Africa only 58 runs to win.

David Bedingham and Aiden Markram knocked off the runs in just 7.1 overs to wrap up the series after their narrow two-wicket win at Centurion, also inside four days. Since beating the West Indies by 40 runs at Providence last August, South Africa have achieved 2-0 series wins against Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Pakistan and qualified for its first World Test Championship final in June in London.
