The article doesn't specifically say anything about Zim (clarification further down), but it is encouraging that we are part of the conversation. I would say we need to make it a proper tour somehow, even if we play the A side after the test. Can't travel all that way for 1 test.
Looking at the FTP for 2025, looks like they can squeeze the 1 Test in the last week of May 2025. Hopefully Zim can arrive early and play a few county teams for preparation.

It's the least I would be expecting. A couple of games against a County or two should definitely be added in. In saying that, May is the start of UK domestic season so not so sure a domestic side will be available.
It would just be a crime to travel all that way after such a long time and only play one game.

Even the MCCU sides would be useful

There's not gonna be a Lords test, watch.
To be honest everyone is hyping it up to be the pinnacle of cricket.
I reckon it would be great but c'mon. It is just a ground.
