Bavuma picked up the injury during the recent white-ball tour of England and is expected to be sidelined for six to eight weeks. South Africa have opted to rest most of their all-format players, barring Corbin Bosch and Dewald Brevis, for the white-ball leg of the Pakistan tour. David Miller will captain the T20I squad, while Matthew Breetzke will lead the ODI squad. Ferreira has also earned a place in the ODI squad to face Pakistan, alongside Burger, Coetzee and de Kock. The Test squad retains most of the core that clinched the WTC mace against Australia in June.
