Summary The UAE has been Pakistan's prime host country for the last four years.

 

ISLAMABAD (AP) - Pakistan will host South Africa for two tests, five one-day internationals and two Twenty20s in the United Arab Emirates in October and November.

Sharjah will host the first and last ODIs of that series on Oct. 30 and Nov. 11, while Dubai will host the second ODI on Nov. 1. Abu Dhabi will host the third and fourth ODIs on Nov. 6 and 8.
