No exact dates for the 50 over World Cup yet but I believe it’s likely to start right at the end of October so no direct clash
Wikipedia says the final is Nov 26 but doesn't have a start date. Assumng that is correct, the last WC had the same format and lasted exactly 6 weeks...meaning this WC would have to start Around Oct 10-15 at the latest. With warm up matches being a week before...that means that any team that is playing in both tournaments will almost surely have a clash.

I am sure the ICC will bring the T20 qualifier up a couple of weeks.

As per the FTP, they've put it right from the 1st week of October until late November... Assuming they are considering warm up games as well, it is pretty much the start of October.

Anyone else heard a rumour about England coming out next year?

Heard a couple of rumours that potentially the England Lions or Women were in talks to come, maybe to ‘test the water’.

If the Men come it’s going to be incredible . It’s a shame HSC is so small - there would be a lot of interest from touring England fans and realistically you could probably get 30,000+ locals in for an England game on a sunny weekend. It’s that eagerly awaited…

That would be perfect preparation

Pakistan are a good ODI unit and will provide a good test against both pace & spin for the Zim boys.

I think at this stage it would be better for us to not play the women sides. Englands women are just way too many levels ahead. It would just be demoralising for our women and could affect their development.

sounds promising. Would fill a big gap in the schedule.

Sounds like we’re on friendly terms with the new Pakistan Chairman. Probably wouldn’t have happened if Ramiz Raza was still in charge.

Now that Ramiz is out of PCB, I won't be surprised if Pakistan do tour. It will be great.
