The last time Australia toured South Africa for a T20I series was back in February 2020, just before the Covid-19 pandemic brought the world to a standstill. They won that series 2-1, and will want to replicate or improve on that result from three and a half years ago.

All three T20Is will be played in Durban – on August 30, and September 1 and 3.

Left-arm fast bowler Spencer Johnson who recently lit up the Hundred on debut is being looked at a bright fast-bowling prospect in the country. He has been given his maiden international call-up for the T20I series.

Matthew Short and Aaron Hardie have received maiden international call-ups as well, but Glenn Maxwell has been ruled out due to an injury and has been replaced by Matthew Wade.

South Africa have also given three players maiden international call-ups – Dewald Brevis, Donovan Ferreira, and Matthew Breetzke. They also have Gerald Coetzee, who has made ODI and Test debuts but is yet to play T20Is, and comeback men Temba Bavuma and Rassie van der Dussen.
