JOHANNESBURG (AP) South Africa plans to trial a four-day test against Zimbabwe in December, although the International Cricket Council is yet to grant the game full status.

Cricket South Africa says its annual Boxing Day test will be played over four days, not five, and also be a day-night match using newly installed floodlights at St. George’s Park in Port Elizabeth.

The ICC has indicated it is open to the possibility of four-day tests being trialed. Cricket’s governing body is expected to decide at a board meeting next month if the Dec. 26 game is granted full test status.

Despite resistance from the MCC and its cricket committee, the ICC Board on Friday approved a "trial" of four-day Test cricket, with South Africa and Zimbabwe playing the first official game of the new format on Boxing Day. The trial is scheduled to run through until the 2019 World Cup, although participation in it is not mandatory.

The ICC's template for four-day Test matches has been confirmed ahead of the inaugural clash between South Africa and Zimbabwe on Boxing Day, with a minimum of 98 overs per day written into the playing conditions. The regulation means that a total of 392 overs could be bowled in the match - only 58 less than is the case in five-day Tests.
