PAK vs SA Pitch Report & Conditions
The Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad is going to host its first international match after 17 years when Pakistan take on South Africa in the first of three ODIs to be played at this venue on Tuesday (November 4).
ODI cricket has gone through many changes since the stadium hosted its last international match involving Pakistan and Bangladesh, with surfaces getting flat with little to no help for the bowlers in white ball cricket.
Having said that, the pitch at Iqbal Stadium is expected to have some assistance for both pacers and spinners, and the batters will have to negotiate that threat to post an above-par total on the board.

There is no chance of rain during the match. The temperature is expected to be a high of 27 degrees and a low of 13 degrees.
