One match away from a series victory, big-hitting batter David Miller says the Proteas are desperate to end their lengthy drought when they face Pakistan in the second of three T20 Internationals in Centurion tonight (6pm start).
Having won the opening match of the series by 11 runs in Durban on Tuesday, the SA team have an opportunity at SuperSport Park this evening to secure a series win with a match to spare.
The Proteas have not won a T20 series since they beat Ireland 2-0 in Bristol in August 2022, and Miller said they were hungry to follow through in front of their home crowd after getting the campaign off to a positive start.
"We're very determined. It's been a while since we won a series," said Miller, who hit 82 runs in the series opener at Kingsmead.
