Английская Википедия:English cricket team in South Africa in 2020–21
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox cricket tour The England cricket team toured South Africa during November and December 2020 to play three One Day International (ODI) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches.[1][2] However, the ODI matches were called off due to a COVID-19 outbreak.[3] The ODI series would have formed part of the inaugural 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League.[4][5]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the England team stayed in a bio-secure environment whilst in South Africa,[6] with the matches played in Cape Town and Paarl.[7] In October 2020, Cricket South Africa (CSA) made a plea to its parliament, saying that is of "critical importance",[8] while waiting on government approval for the tour to go ahead.[9] On 21 October 2020, both cricket boards agreed to the series, with the full tour itinerary being confirmed.[10][11]
England won the first two T20I matches to take an unassailable lead in the series.[12] England won the third match by nine wickets to take the series 3–0, with the victory putting England at the top of the ICC T20I Championship.[13]
The first ODI match, originally scheduled to be played on 4 December, was cancelled less than an hour before it was due to start,[14] after a South African player tested positive for coronavirus.[15] As a result, the fixture was moved back by two days.[16] However, on 6 December, the rescheduled match was abandoned after two members of the hotel staff tested positive for coronavirus.[17] Shortly after the match was called off, two members of England's touring party returned "unconfirmed positive tests" for the virus.[18] Later the same day, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) confirmed that the second ODI, scheduled for 7 December, would not be played on that date.[19] On 7 December, the remainder of the ODI series was postponed.[20] Both cricket boards agreed to work on hosting the ODI series at another time.[21][22]
Squads
Jake Ball, Tom Banton, Tom Helm were also named as reserves for England across both formats.[27] Kagiso Rabada was ruled out of South Africa's ODI squad after picking up a groin injury during the T20I series.[28] South Africa also rested Faf du Plessis, Pite van Biljon, Bjorn Fortuin and Reeza Hendricks for the ODI series.[29]
Practice matches
A South Africa intra-squad warm-up match, due to take place on 21 November, was cancelled after two players tested positive for coronavirus.[30] A second match, scheduled to be played on 23 November, was also cancelled in an attempt to limit the impact of any possible infections.[31] Conversely, England played one 40-over intra-squad match and one 20-over intra-squad match,[32] with Jos Buttler and Eoin Morgan named as the team captains.[33]
