South Africa to take a 7-day break from SA20 for England ODI series

Johannesburg: South Africa will be at full strength for a crucial one-day international series against world champions England early next year despite the series being scheduled in the same time period as the country’s new Twenty20 league. Fixtures for the SA20 league were announced by Cricket South Africa on Tuesday. The schedule includes an eight-day break to accommodate the one-day series, which is part of the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) World Cup Super League. South Africa are languishing in 11th place in the league. They need to win the majority of their remaining fixtures – three against England and two against the Netherlands – in order to become one of the eight automatic qualifiers for the Cricket World Cup in India in October and November next year. The series against England will be played in Bloemfontein and Kimberley between 27 January and 1 February.

The day everyone has been waiting for has arrived‼️#SA20 to blast off with an exciting Western Cape derby between @MICapeTown and @paarlroyals at Newlands 😁

The gap in the T20 fixtures will also enable England players involved in the SA20, including white-ball captain Jos Buttler, to represent their country. England are second in the Super League table. Other prominent English players signed by SA20 franchises include Liam Livingstone, Adil Rashid, Sam Curran, and Harry Brook. The SA20 will start on 10 January and there will be matches every day until 24 January before a pause until 2 February. The final will be at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg on 11 February. Six teams, all owned by Indian Premier League franchise owners, will play in the SA20 which Cricket South Africa hopes will bring much-needed revenue to the local game. Tournament commissioner Graeme Smith last week announced that an Indian company had signed a ten-year deal to broadcast the matches to Indian television viewers. “This long-term partnership is a catalyst that supports our ambitions to build the world’s second-biggest league,” said Smith. South Africa’s hopes of climbing the World Cup Super League table were dented when a scheduled series in Australia in January 2023 was cancelled to enable all the country’s players to be available for the SA20. The points were forfeited to Australia. Read all the Latest News , Trending News , Cricket News , Bollywood News , India News and Entertainment News here.
