The series will kick off on June 28.
The World Test Championship (WTC) 2025 winners, South Africa, will take on Zimbabwe for a two-match red-ball series. These two sides had clashed in a four-day practice match in Arundel, England, earlier this month, to prepare South Africa ahead of the ICC summit clash. Notably, the series between Zimbabwe and South Africa will not be a part of the WTC 2025-27 schedule.
Sadly, for Proteas fans, the WTC-winning skipper Temba Bavuma will miss the series due to an injury. He suffered a left hamstring strain during the Final at Lord’s against Australia. Spinner Keshav Maharaj will lead the team in his absence. Prominent figures, including Aiden Markram, Kagiso Rabada, Marco Jansen and Tristan Stubbs, will also not feature in the series to manage their workload. South Africa have named five uncapped players in their squad for this series. Apart from Dewald Brevis and Lhuan Dre-Pretorius, who have had some remarkable outings in the recent fixtures, youngsters like Lesego Senokwane, Codi Yusuf, and Prenelan Subrayen have also earned a call-up.
