South Africa Women's National Cricket Team vs India Women's National Cricket Team Full Schedule: South will host India and Australia in a high-profile women’s international season across 2026-27, featuring multi-format series and rare Test matches, Cricket South Africa (CSA) confirmed.
India will tour South Africa in December 2026 for a three-match One-Day International (ODI) series as part of the ICC Women’s Championship 2025-29, which will determine qualification for the 2029 Women’s Cricket World Cup. The series will be followed by a one-off Test.
The red-ball match, scheduled from Dec. 20-23 in Gqeberha, will be the fourth women’s Test between the two sides and only the second to be played at the venue. The last women’s Test in Gqeberha was held in December 1960 when South Africa hosted England.
Australia will then arrive in March 2027 for a multi-format tour comprising three Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is), three ODIs and a one-off Test.
The four-day Test will mark just the second meeting between South Africa and Australia in the format. In their previous encounter in Perth in February 2024, Australia secured a dominant innings-and-284-run victory.
CSA chief executive Pholetsi Moseki said the upcoming fixtures underline the growing stature of women’s cricket in the country.
“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,” Moseki said. “These tours will showcase the very best of international women’s cricket and build on the encouraging rise in fan attendance, as we continue to welcome growing crowds across the country.”
South Africa are currently playing a five-match T20I series against New Zealand as part of their preparations for the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in June in England and Wales.
