West Indies will host South Africa for a Test series from August 7. Here’s everything you need to know about the schedule of the WI vs SA 2024 Tests, including the full fixtures list, match timings and venues.

When will the WI vs SA 2024 Test series begin?

South Africa's tour will start with a four-day warm-up match between July 31 and August 3, at Brian Lara Cricket Academy at Tarouba, San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago.

The first Test will be played between August 7 and 11 and will be held on the same island but at a different location at Traouba in San Fernando. Guyana National Stadium will host the second fixture from August 15 to 19.

Can West Indies revive their fortunes?

Having sent a second-string South Africa side to New Zealand earlier this year, the big guns have returned under the leadership of Temba Bavuma. They are currently seventh in the World Tests Championship rankings with just a points percentage of 25 from four matches.

On the other hand, Kraigg Brathwaite’s West Indies, have the worst PCT of 19.04 among the nine teams. They are reeling at the bottom after a 0-3 whitewash in England.
