Cricket South Africa have confirmed the fixtures and venues for late August to early September 2023’s T20I and ODI series between the Proteas and Australia.
Durban will host three T20Is before the five-ODI series is played in Bloemfontein, Potchefstroom, Centurion and Johannesburg.
“It is the start of the international season for us and it is a particularly important campaign in many respects because of the World Cup which is taking place in India later in the year,: said CSA chief executive officer Pholetsi Moseki.
“We haven’t qualified just yet, but we hope to be there and challenging the best in the world when the tournament is played in October and November.
“Games and tours like these against a formidable Australia side can only do good for our Proteas Men. It is also an opportunity for coach Rob Walter and his team to keep building on the excellent work they have already done so far together.
“We look forward to watching them play and we hope that South Africans will come out in their numbers and get behind the team in what should be a highly competitive tour.”
