A grade two calf strain forces South African captain Temba Bavuma to miss the Pakistan Test series completely. Aiden Markram assumes leadership duties for the Test matches as Bavuma undergoes a six to eight week recovery period. The injured skipper focuses on returning for November's India tour while Simon Harmer earns his first Test recall since March 2023. Spinners Senuran Muthusamy and Prenelan Subrayen join Harmer in the squad rotation. Keshav Maharaj receives selection for the second Test only due to his groin injury rehabilitation.

Quinton de Kock reverses his ODI retirement decision and rejoins both white-ball squads for Pakistan. The wicketkeeper-batter last played ODIs during the 2023 World Cup semi-final stage before stepping away from the format. David Miller takes charge of the T20I side while Matthew Breetzke captains the ODI team. Donovan Ferreira leads South Africa against Namibia in a historic first T20I between the nations. The Proteas rest most all-format players except Corbin Bosch and Dewald Brevis for white-ball matches.
