Proteas Women to tour Zimbabwe
The first-ever T20I series between the Proteas Women and Zimbabwe Women will take place in Bulawayo.
The five-match series will be hosted at the Queens Sports Club, with fixtures scheduled for 11, 13, 15, 17 and 19 September.
The opening encounter will mark the maiden senior women’s T20I clash between the two nations, following previous meetings involving the SA Emerging Women at the 2024 African Games T20 tournament in Ghana, as well as the ODI Quadrangular Series featuring South Africa, India, Zimbabwe and Ireland in Potchefstroom in 2017.

“This is an important and exciting moment for women’s cricket in Africa,” said CSA CEO Pholetsi Moseki. “As CSA, we are proud to be part of a historic occasion that not only expands international opportunities for the Proteas Women but also contributes to the continued growth and visibility of the women’s game across the continent.
“Zimbabwe Cricket has shown a strong commitment to the development of women’s cricket, and we look forward to what we believe will be a competitive and meaningful series for both teams and their supporters.”
