England confirm limited-overs tour to South Africa

England tour of South Africa 2020

England Cricket Board (ECB) earlier this week confirmed that they have got approval from their Government to travel South Africa later this year for six limited-overs games. The tour will be played between November 27, 2020 and December 09, 2020. This bilateral series between England and South Africa comes as a big relief for the home team as they are currently under deep financial loss as per the reports!

England Squad which is said to be picked in early November, will travel by a chartered flight on November 16. The group will train at the Western Province Cricket Club where they are set to play three intra-squad practice matches - two T20s and a one-day match.

The three match T20I series from November 27 will kick start the tour and will be followed by a three match ODI series. All these six games are to be played in Cape Town and Paarl with Cape Town to host majority (four) of the games.
