As far as the head-to-head between these teams go, South Africa lead the way with 19 wins from 25 encounters, while Pakistan have emerged triumphant on four occasions.

Ahead of the series, hosts Pakistan also named their squad. Umm-e-Hani and Waheeda Akhtar have been picked in place of Ayesha and Kainat Imtiaz.
