Tickets now on sale for a hot summer of cricket

Cricket South Africa (CSA) is thrilled to announce that tickets for the highly anticipated 2026/27 international season are officially on sale, inviting fans across the country to come together for a summer filled with fierce rivalries in world cricket.

The 2026/27 season will see Temba Bavuma’s side take on Australia in a three-match ODI series in September, before the reigning ICC World Test Champions (WTC) face them in a three-match Test series starting in October.

Supporters can look forward to these two arch-rivals going head-to-head in iconic moments including the Pink Day ODI at the DP World Wanderers Stadium on 27 September.

The Proteas then welcome Bangladesh for an all-format tour, which includes two Test matches in November, followed by a three-match ODI series in early December.

The international home summer then reaches its peak with the arrival of England over the festive period for a three-match Test series, including the iconic Boxing Day Test at SuperSport Park and the prestigious New Year’s Test at the World Sports Betting Newlands Cricket Ground.

The two teams will round off with a three-match ODI series in January as the Proteas continue building towards the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2027 on home soil.

The Proteas Women will headline another landmark season as they welcome India and Australia for two major inbound tours.

India’s tour will feature three ICC Women’s Championship ODI contests and a historic one-off Test match at Dafabet St George’s Park, with matches also taking place in Potchefstroom, Bloemfontein and Cape Town.

In another milestone moment for women’s cricket in South Africa, Australia Women will tour the country for the first-ever full bilateral series between the two sides on South African soil.

The tour will feature three T20 Internationals and three ODIs, including the symbolic Black Day fixture at the Hollywoodbets Kingsmead Stadium on 3 April 2027, followed by the once-off Test match at the JB Marks oval.

CSA Chief Executive Officer Pholetsi Moseki said: “This season is about more than cricket; it is about bringing South Africans together through shared moments and unforgettable experiences. Whether it is families enjoying a day at the stadium, friends travelling together for a Test match, or first-time fans experiencing the atmosphere for the very first time, cricket continues to unite people in a unique way.

“The 2026/27 season promises world-class cricket across both the men’s and women’s game and we encourage supporters to secure their tickets early and be part of a summer where the unbreakable spirit of South African cricket truly comes alive.”
