Fast bowler Kagiso Rabada, in return, got South Africa off to a good start, removing Pakistan openers Abid Ali and Imran early.
While Rabada cleaned up Abid for four, Imran gloved a short delivery up to leg gully at a score of 9 in his first Test inning, leaving Pakistan reeling at 15/2.
The hosts finished the day on 33 for 4, with Keshav Maharaj trapping Babar Azam in front of the stumps and Anrich Nortje knocking over night-watchman Shaheen Afridi for a duck.
