JOHANNESBURG: Cricket South Africa (CSA) has confirmed an adjustment to the men’s international schedule for the 2025/26 season, with the five-match T20 International (T20I) series between the Proteas and West Indies reduced to three matches, to be played from 27 – 31 January 2026.

The decision follows the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) confirmation of the commencement dates for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, with the tournament support period now scheduled to begin on 31 January. As a result, the T20I series, which had been set for 27 January – 06 February, has been revised to three matches in order to accommodate the adjusted international calendar.

The series will see Boland Park in Paarl host the opening match on Tuesday, 27 January, before the teams move to the Highveld for the second encounter at SuperSport Park in Centurion on Thursday, 29 January.

This season’s iconic Pink Day, traditionally staged as a One-Day International (ODI), will take place during the third T20I at DP World Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg on Saturday, 31 January. Pink Day has become one of the most celebrated events on the cricketing calendar, raising funds and awareness in the fight against breast cancer.

In addition, the 2025/26 season will also feature a three-match Youth ODI series between South Africa U19s and India U19s at Willowmoore Park in Benoni from 03 – 07 January.

The series will form a key part of both teams’ preparation for the ICC Men’s U19 Cricket World Cup 2026, to be co-hosted by Namibia and Zimbabwe early next year.

  1. Swimming in South Africa Is a Sport of the Royal: Many athletes from royal backgrounds are known for their skills in swimming. For example, Charlene, the Princess of Monaco, was one of the Olympic swimmers in 2000. The country much appreciated her for taking up sports as her passion without abiding by the royal restrictions.

  2. The most tries scored by a rugby player is 69 – Though Japan is yet to take the world cup, former player Daisuke Ohata holds the world record for most international tries with 69. He set the bar between 1996 and 2006 while playing on the wing and once scored eight tries in a single match. It’s going to be a long time before anyone beats that record!
