These fixtures for the South African summer were announced by Cricket South Africa on Friday.
The men’s and women’s teams will also play a bunch of ODI and T20 matches from November through to December.
A South African A team will also take on their A counterparts from Sri Lanka in three 50-over matches and two four-day matches in South Africa at the end of the year.
The men’s Tests against Sri Lanka will be played in Durban between November 27 and December 1 and in Gqeberha between December 5 and 9.
