India Women to play one-off Test against South Africa in December

India Women are set to play South Africa in a one-off Test in Gqeberha from December 20 to 23. The tour also features a three-match ODI series, part of the ICC Women's Championship, to be held from December 9 to 15 across Potchefstroom, Bloemfontein and Cape Town.

This will be only the fourth Test meeting between the two sides and just the second women's Test to be played at St George's Park. The tour begins with a warm-up fixture against South Africa Emerging in Benoni on December 6.

India's visit forms the first half of a high-profile home summer for South Africa Women, with Australia set to tour from March 18 to April 11, 2027.

Australia's tour will feature three T20Is, three ODIs and a one-off Test. The T20I series will be played in Kimberley, Benoni and East London. The ODI leg moves to Gqeberha, Paarl and Durban, with the final match being the annual Black Day ODI. The tour concludes with a four-day Test in Potchefstroom from April 8 to 11.

CSA Chief Executive Officer Pholetsi Moseki said: "We are delighted to host two of the world's leading teams in India and Australia for what promises to be a blockbuster home summer for the Proteas Women. These tours will showcase the very best of international women's cricket. It is also exciting to host two Test matches on home soil during the season. Test cricket remains a special and historic format of the game."
