Pakistan have reached the under-19 Cricket World Cup semi-finals with a three-wicket win over South Africa.
Bowling first, Pakistan limited the young Proteas on Wednesday to 9-189 in their 50 overs, with only Wandile Makwetu and Jason Niemand scoring more than 30 runs.
In response, Pakistan also struggled with the bat.
They lost a host of top-order batsmen to be 5-111 until Saad Khan anchored for the impressive Ali Zaryab Asif, who scored 74 off 111 balls.
Their plodding sixth-wicket stand ultimately helped Pakistan over the line in Christchurch with three wickets and two overs remaining.
They'll play New Zealand or Afghanistan in their semi-final.
