The three ODIs will be played at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore from August 16 to 22, providing a crucial platform for their preparation before the ODI World Cup. But, ahead of South Africa's visit, Pakistan will be touring Ireland for a three-match T20I series in early August.
Following the ODIs against South Africa, Pakistan will travel to Sri Lanka for the ODI World Cup, where they will play seven games during the group stage from October 2 to 25.
