Pakistan began the Test series with a strong 93-run win over South Africa. They scored 378 runs in the first innings and then bowled South Africa out for 269. Pakistan didn’t do well in their second innings, managing only 167, but their bowlers stepped up again and dismissed South Africa for 183 to secure the win.

It was a good team effort from Pakistan. The batters gave a solid start, and the bowlers did the rest with accurate spells. South Africa tried to fight back but couldn’t handle the pressure in the last innings. Pakistan will now look to carry this winning momentum into the second Test.
