We haven't had this for a while - an international cricket tour full of T20s, ODIs and Tests.

South Africa welcomes India's men and the Bangladesh women for a month-long engagement, and we've put together everything you'll need to know to stay in touch as the Proteas teams look to prepare for the summer of cricket.

The Momentum Proteas will be taking on Bangladesh this December, and the tour begins with three T20Is followed by three ODIs which will be part of the 2022-25 Women's Championship. 

The first T20I in Benoni on December 3, followed by two T20Is in Kimberley on December 6 and 8 respectively. The ODIs will be played in East London, Potchefstroom and Benoni on December 16, 20 and 23.

Bangladesh are seventh on the championship table with three wins from 12 matches whereas South Africa occupy the fifth spot having played nine games and winning seven of them. That apart, Bangladesh have beaten South Africa only twice in the 18 ODIs and only once in 11 T20Is.
