After a month-long break, India will travel to South Africa for a T20I series. This is a last-minute addition to India’s busy schedule, although it gives them more game time to prepare for the T20 World Cup.
The series includes five T20Is, with the first and second matches on April 17 and 19 in Durban. The third and fourth T20Is will take place on April 22 and 25 in Johannesburg, while the series will conclude on April 27 in Benoni.

ICC Women’s T20 World Cup | June-July 2026 (Away)
