Resuming on 176, Rickelton was content to feed the strike to Kyle Verreynne (100) and Marco Jansen (62) in quick-scoring partnerships of 148 for the sixth wicket and 86 for the seventh wicket.
The injury occurred while Saim was fielding, and subsequent MRI scans conducted on Friday afternoon confirmed the fracture. The affected ankle has been immobilized with a medical moon boot to aid recovery.
Former England captain Michael Vaughan, speaking on Fox Cricket, claimed that South Africa reached the final "on the back of beating pretty much nobody."
“I was still sulking in the toilet. There were not a lot of conversations. We still had the confidence. I did not come out to the viewing area and was in the toilet. I came when 15 runs were needed,” Bavuma laughed.
The Test had a finish more like that of a Twenty20 match as the tailenders delivered success after South Africa had slumped dramatically before lunch and seen Pakistan on the verge of success.
Dane Paterson took five for 61 -– his second five-wicket haul in successive Tests -– and debutant Corbin Bosch took four for 63.
The young South African side have exceeded expectations and gained momentum since success in Guyana in August set them on a winning streak.
