A 161-run second-wicket stand between Imam-ul-Haq and captain Shan Masood, and an undefeated 114-run sixth-wicket partnership between Mohammad Rizwan and Salman Agha put Pakistan in a strong position heading into the second day. The two-match series is part of the new World Test Championship two-year cycle. The Proteas are the reigning champions after beating Australia in June.
