Match Pakistan vs South Africa Date 12-16 October 2025 Time 10:30 AM IST Venue Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore PAK vs SA Match Preview:
After the Asia Cup disappointment, Pakistan will be seeking a fresh start when they take on South Africa in the first Test. While Pakistan did well to qualify for the final, they could not avoid a third loss against India in the same competition. Things have settled down now, and Pakistan will be hoping to focus fully on cricket.
A Test series win over the reigning WTC champions will be a huge morale-booster for the hosts. Pakistan have not played a Test match since January this year and will be hoping that the long gap does not affect them much. The upcoming match will kickstart their campaign in the ongoing WTC cycle, and they will be keen to begin with a win.

For South Africa, it will be their first Test since the historic triumph over Australia in the WTC final in June this year. They will be without their talismanic captain, Temba Bavuma, and will be hoping that the absence does not hurt them much.
South Africa have the clear upper hand in this rivalry. Out of the 30 Tests between the two teams so far, South Africa have won 17, Pakistan have won 6, and 7 matches ended in draws.
