The proteas are set to take on the Windies in a 2-match test series starting from the 28th of February. The first game of the series will be played at SuperSport Park Cricket stadium. Here is the information about South Africa vs West Indies 2023 Test Series Live Telecast Channel in India.
Both teams are already out of the WTC finals spot. West Indies were out of the race way back but South Africa got eliminated recently when India defeated Australia in Delhi Test. Now only India, Australia, and Sri Lanka are the only three teams left for the final 2 spots.
South Africa will host a 2 Test match series for West Indies after 8 years
The last time when these two teams faced each other in a test series in South Africa was way back in 2015. South Africa won that series 2-0 thanks to Hashim Amla’s scintillating batting performance throughout the series.
Since then Windies haven’t traveled to South Africa for any format of the game.
Their latest test series was held in 2021 in the Caribbean where Proteas won 2-0 with their dominant bowling performance.
