The 2020–21 CSA 4-Day Franchise Series is a first-class cricket competition that is currently taking place in South Africa from November 2020 to February 2021.[1][2] Six teams are taking part in the tournament, split into two groups.[1] Lions are the defending champions.[3][4]

Ahead of the opening round of fixtures, Warriors withdrew six members of its team due to COVID-19.[5] Two players tested positive,[6] with another four players withdrawn from being in direct contact with the two positive cases.[7] The round five fixture between Titans and Dolphins was called off on the morning of day two, after a player returned a positive test for COVID-19.[8] As a result of the increase in positive COVID-19 cases, the sixth round of matches, originally scheduled to start on 20 December 2020, was postponed until 2021.[9][10]
