The Pakistani team Ends South Africa's 10-Test Unbeaten Run.
Shaheen Afridi took four wickets in the second innings following going wicketless in the first innings.
Opening Test, the Gaddafi Stadium (day four)
The home side 378 (Imam-ul-Haq 93, Salman Agha 93; Muthusamy 6-117) & 167 (Babar 42; Muthusamy 5-57)
The visitors 269 (De Zorzi 104; Noman 6-112) & 183 (Brevis 54; Shaheen Afridi 4-33, Noman Ali 4-79)
Pakistan won by 93 runs
Pakistan brought an end to world champions South Africa's unbeaten run by achieving a 93-run margin triumph in an thrilling and competitive opening Test in the city of Lahore.
The Proteas, who had a 10-match unbeaten run in Test cricket culminated in victory over the Aussies in the World Test Championship final in the month of June, were bowled out for 183 in pursuit of 277.
Starting the day on 51 for two, they saw the dismissal of first-innings centurion De Zorzi lbw to pace bowler Afridi to the third delivery of the day to push the finely-poised run chase in the home team's favor.
Slow left-armer Noman, who claimed 10-191 in the game, dismissed Stubbs for two and bowled Brevis, who put up a fight with a rapid 54.
Right-arm spinner Sajid Khan also capitalized on sharp turn to end opening batsman Ryan Rickelton's stay - he lasted 145 deliveries for 45 runs - and Afridi came back in the afternoon session to knock over the tail with a fine display of reverse-swing bowling.
He had Verreynne lbw for 19 and bowled Subrayen and Kagiso Rabada to secure the win.
It was both sides' opening game of the 2025-27 Test championship cycle and propels Pakistan straight into the number two spot behind table-toppers Australia.
Their victory was founded on contributions of ninety-three by opening batsman Imam-ul-Haq and, importantly, all-rounder Salman Agha which boosted them to three hundred and seventy-eight.
After that slow bowlers Noman and Sajid Khan utilized helpful home pitches, as they did in their series victory over England the previous year, to maintain their lead.
The second and last match starts on 20 October.
