Tickets
1st Test - South Africa v England
Play Starts: 10:00
England have won their last two test matches at The Wanderers, most recently in January 2020 thanks to an outstanding performance from Mark Wood, taking 9 wickets in the match including the key wicket of Quentin de Kock in both South African innings. The Wanderers is sometimes known as 'the bullring' due to it's intimidating atmosphere for away sides and has been host to a number of memorable test cricket moments. England fans will remember Mike Atherton batting for over 10 hours to save a test match in 1995.
- Tickets:
- Unity Stand
- Venue:
- The Wanderers Stadium, Johannesburg
- Capacity:
- 28,000
2nd Test - South Africa v England
Play Starts: 10:00
One of our favourite test match grounds, with a lush outfield and grass embankments, the pitch here is known for being a little quicker than others, which helped Jofra Archer take a third innings fifer the last time England played a test here in 2019. England did go on to lose that match though, and don't have a particularly good record here. Their only win came in 2000 which was marred by the infamous Hanse Cronje match-fixing scandal, when both teams forfeited an innings to force a result in the face of rain delays. Cronje orchestrated this as he needed to force a result for the bookmakers. England will be hoping to rectify that record this winter.
- Tickets:
- Grandstand
- Venue:
- SuperSport Park Centurion, Pretoria
- Capacity:
- 20,000
3rd Test - South Africa v England
Play Starts: 10:30
Another of our favourite test match cricket grounds, England fans will remember a fantastic test match win here at the start of 2020. Ben Stokes took the final three wickets (including two in an over) to force a result when a draw looked increasingly likely. Other notable contributions in that game include a Sir Jimmy Anderson fifer in South Africa's first innings, and an unbeaten Dom Sibley hundred in England's second. The ground is one of the most beautiful in the world, nestled at the foot of Table Mountain. It's one of the few grounds in South Africa conducive to spin bowling and it doesn't often end in a draw here.
