PAK vs SA Test series marks South Africa’s first Test tour of Pakistan since 2021, adding historical significance to the contest.

Under the leadership of Shan Masood, Pakistan are likely to rely on their spin department, with Sajid Khan and Noman Ali expected to play key roles. Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan are also back in the Test setup after being left out of the Asia Cup squad.

The visitors will also miss Keshav Maharaj because of a groin strain, but their pace attack led by Kagiso Rabada and Marco Jansen still poses a major threat to the Pakistani batting lineup.
