AnswerClick to flip back
A
South Africa, 1889
💡 Explanation:
South Africa became the third Test-playing nation in 1889, after England (first) and Australia (second). South Africa played their first Test match against England at Port Elizabeth in 1888-89. This established the early triad of Test cricket nations. India gained Test status much later (1932), not in 1910 or 1889 as the incorrect options suggest.
