Windies confirmed for first test in South Africa in eight years

The West Indies will play their first test in South Africa in eight years when the two square off in three matches in February 2023.

The series begins on February 28 in Centurion followed by the second encounter in Johannesburg on March 8. The series will be preceded by a 4-day warm-up match in Benoni against a South African X1. The regional team has only one win in 15 test matches in South Africa.

It will be a full tour, consisting on three One Day Internationals on March 16, 18 and 21 in East London and Potchefstroom respectively.

The tour is expected to be completed with three T20 internationals, two in Centurion on March 25 and 26 before returning to Johannesburg on March 28.
