South Africa will look to continue their winning streak when they take on Pakistan in first test match of the series two games.

Pakistan, meanwhile, will keep the field away from the controversy and repair their ODI series loss in South Africa.

South Africa won the T20Is and 3-2 to win the ODIs against Pakistan. Pakistan has not had a great time in the test matches and have lost to Australia 3-0 and 3-1 in England this year.

Be able to lead the side, but the major players in the Proteas is Hashim Amla, Jacques Kallis and Dale Steyn.

For Pakistan, the middle order looks good after a while, thanks to the presence of Mohammad Yousuf and Younis Khan.
