I think that was mooted a couple of months ago as a tri-series with Uganda? Are they still coming too, or just us and Nam now?

Hami has confirmed the elusive Afghanistan series will definitely happen in the next few months.

Plus the aforementioned SA 'A' and Namibia series.

He expects 2-4 Tests before the end of 2022.

Did he say who those Tests are against? We can say with a great degree of certainty that 2 Tests will be vs Afghanistan...who are the other 2 against?

No. he just said 'minimum two, hopefully 4' and didn't elaborate. He may still be 1% hopeful of that Test in Australia but I'd be amazed if that ever happened.

If he said hopefully 4, then I guess that means the board has the money/sponsorships to ensure it? They could always host 2, and tour another country for the other 2.

I think with the T20 WC, the board wants to focus on white ball till October, and leave the Tests for afterwards.
