Former captain Sarfraz Ahmed is likely to play One Day International (ODI) matches against South Africa, Geo News, citing sources, reported on Wednesday.
The series starts with a one-day international in Centurion on Friday.
The former captain is expected to take charge as a wicket-keeper and Mohammad Rizwan as a batsman. However, the management is mulling over including Muhammad Rizwan on number 4 and Sarfraz on number 5.
To make the final decision regarding Sarfaraz's inclusion in the team, head coach Misbah ul Haq, national team captain Babar Azam and other officials are discussing the prospects.
Haider Ali or Asif Ali will be dropped from the squad in case Sarfraz is playing, the sources added.
