The West Indies cricket team is touring South Africa in January 2026 to play the South Africa cricket team.[1] The tour will consist of three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[2][3] The series forms part of both teams’ preparation ahead of the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup tournament.[4] In March 2025, the Cricket South Africa (CSA) confirmed the fixtures for the tour, as a part of the 2025 home international season.[5]
Originally, the series included five T20Is.[6] Later in September 2025, it was later reduced to three due to a clash with the T20 World Cup.[7][8]
