and I've probably missed a few. What's going on? The names involved might suggest that there is some kind of A-team camp or upcoming match. Can anyone shed any light?

Yes, so many fringe national players missing. Could be an A team tour, not a word about that though. Could the seniors be striking, demanding their paychecks or right to create a union? Or, could it be the repercussion of the attempt to bring the Verm back in the fold? Intriguing...

Confirmed

There is an "A" team camp!

OK, remembering a mention of A team series between AFG and ZIM at Greater Noida. Could it be for that?

Ah! could dig it up:

The U-19 series will be followed by two first class matches and three List A one-dayers between the national A-teams. The first class matches will be played between January 16 and 19 and January 22 and 25. The one dayers are scheduled on January 28, 30 and February 1. Greater Noida is also gearing up to hold full internationals between the same national teams.

I see, thanks a lot.

Good to see the regular fixtures with Afghanistan at all levels. Not so good to see that they are beating Zim at all of these levels at the moment! (Will the 4 day games be FC? Do associate A-teams have FC status?)

Yes it is for the tour to India,i have had this confirmed by one of the Tuskers players.

Hmm, look at the way we need to dig information out! Why are Lovemore Banda and co. getting paid if there is zero communication?
