Pakistan Women will visit South Africa in February 2026 for a six-match white-ball tour. The tour includes three T20 Internationals and three One Day Internationals at six different grounds. It runs from February 10 to March 1, 2026.

This tour provides Pakistan with key match practice ahead of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 in England and Wales.

Quick Look at Pakistan Women’s South Africa Tour 2026

The Pakistan Cricket Board confirmed this tour in January 2026. Pakistan Women have not toured South Africa on a one-on-one basis in five years. Their last trip came in January 2021 for a three-match ODI series. Pakistan also played games in South Africa during the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 in Cape Town and Paarl.

Fatima Sana will lead Pakistan in both the T20I and ODI legs. The team will train at the Hanif Mohammad High Performance Centre in Karachi from February 1 to 6 before leaving for South Africa. Wahab Riaz joins the tour as a mentor. Imran Farhat coaches the batters, Umaid Asif handles fast bowling, Abdur Rehman guides the spinners, and Abdul Majeed looks after fielding.

This tour is important to both parties. Pakistan wants to bounce back after its early exit from the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup 2025. South Africa wants to keep its winning run going and prepare for the T20 World Cup. All three T20Is will be played under lights, while the ODI leg features a mix of day and day-night games.
