Cricket South Africa (CSA) on Monday announced an updated schedule of India's curtailed tour of the country with Centurion hosting the first of the three Tests from December 26.

The CSA and the BCCI on Saturday announced that the tour will go ahead but the Indian team's departure will be postponed by a week and T20Is will not be a part of the schedule due to emergence of Omicron variant in SA. The Indians were set to leave on December 9 but the travel plans have changed, which means that the Tests will now start on December 26 instead of December 17.

. 1st Test (Dec 26-30): Centurion
. 2nd Test (Jan 3-7): Johannesburg
. 3rd Test (Jan 11-15): Cape Town
