Quinton de Kock made a triumphant return to international cricket, scoring a match-winning 123 runs not out as South Africa defeated Pakistan by eight wickets in their second ODI in Faisalabad.

Despite Pakistan's solid middle-order contributions and a competitive total, South Africa's chase was guided expertly by de Kock's innings and solid bowling performances by Nandre Burger and Nqaba Peter.
