The official itinerary was jointly released by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Tuesday.
“This will be the Proteas Test squad’s first series since February this year, and as the world leaders in this format, I am sure that there will be a huge sense of anticipation not just for supporters of the two countries but among cricket fans around the world," commented CSA Acting CEO Naasei Appiah.
