Overview
- Laura Wolvaardt captains South Africa, with Fatima Sana leading Pakistan for the three-match ODI series.
- The opener is at Mangaung Oval in Bloemfontein on 22 February, followed by matches on 25 February and 1 March, including a day-night game at SuperSport Park in Centurion.
- South Africa confirmed a late change as Marizanne Kapp was ruled out through illness and uncapped 18-year-old all-rounder Fay Cowling was called up.
- Pakistan announced a 15-player squad that includes uncapped left-arm pacer Tasmia Rubab, alongside a full touring support staff.
- South Africa enter after a 2–1 T20I series win and a dominant ODI head-to-head record (23–6), with Wolvaardt warning of Pakistan’s spin threat as at least one fantasy preview predicts a home win.
