April-May: South Africa 'A' at home - 5 T20Is (our first team) and 3 ODIs (our 'A' team)
May: Namibia at home - 5 T20Is
June: Afghanistan at home - 5 T20Is and 3 Super League ODIs

^ All confirmed now.

Is Series against Namibia is T20i or 'A' tournament?
Anyway we playing 15 T20 matches in the period of two months. That's a positive note and hoping NPl will start soon as a T20 tournament too.

So where are the 2-4 Tests being planned for this year?

15 T20s are a decent prep for the WC I think.

I think Afghanistan might come back in December. We will have to see what the FTP says, I don't think they mentioned the West Indies earlier for no reason.

15 T20s against SA 'A', Namibia and Afghanistan is actually decent prep for the type of teams we will be facing. Especially Afghanistan if they bring a full strength team. Namibia did ok at the World Cup last year too. So it's not bad.

Great to see some games being scheduled.

India series will most likely be in August, just before India go for Asia Cup.

Sounds like we might be sending an 'A' team to Nepal in the next few weeks too if what I've heard is true. Being mostly/entirely funded by the Nepal board.

Not sure if this is in place of the SA games or anything.

If that true i really like to see the real 'A' team not that old experimented players. Most importantly we have so many matches in line :D interesting to see that.

Rumor circulating in the Nepali social media, that Zimbabwe A will be touring Nepal senior side at the end of April, for 3 ODI and 3 T-20s. Some senior players from Zimbabwe are expected to feature in the series.
There was a final between PNG and Nepal today. Thousands of people were in the crowd on a weekday in TU stadium.

Well I'd think we might be expected to send a few seniors considering it's all expenses paid by Nepal apparently.

Unless the South Africa series has moved or cancelled, I'm not sure how we are fitting all these fixtures in a short period. For once our schedule actually seems impossibly crowded!

If the fixtures do clash I suspect we will see a "junior" 'A' team against SA 'A' with the likes of Wes, Shumba, Madande, Chivanga, Ngarava etc . Then you could get a "senior" 'A' team playing in Nepal with the likes of Kaia, Chisoro, Chamu, Cephas, Tiripano and Richmond getting a holiday.

Maybe add Raza and Blessing who are already out there to play for a week to make the Nepal fans happy. If the junior team is weak they can add Williams and Regis who have been missing for a while. They need game time. Ervine the captain can then maybe be added for the SA A T20s. That way Hami ticks all the boxes.
