BCCI curtails tour of SA

The four T20Is will be played at a later date and Cricket South Africa said it will confirm the venues for the new schedule in the next 48 hours

The Indian cricket team’s tour of South Africa will go ahead, but the team’s departure has been postponed by a week and T20Is are no longer a part of the schedule, the two boards announced on Saturday, ending the speculation surrounding the series after a new COVID-19 variant triggered anxiety.

The four T20Is will be played at a later date and Cricket South Africa said it will confirm the venues for the new schedule in the next 48 hours. The Indians were originally set to leave on December 9, but the travel plans have changed, which means that the Tests will now start on December 26 instead of the previously finalised December 17.
