Namibia vs Zimbabwe T20I Series 2023: Full schedule, squads, match timings and live streaming details
The upcoming five-game T20I series between Namibia and Zimbabwe starts on Tuesday, October 24, and concludes on October 30. The United Ground will host the first two games, while the remaining ones will be at the Wanderers Cricket Ground.
Namibia are coming off a 4-0 T20I series win against Uganda in July and won twice more in the unofficial ODIs. Meanwhile, Zimbabwe is gearing up for international action after their participation in the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier.
While they had an impressive run in the group stage with a flawless record of four wins, they stumbled in the Super Six stage. They finished fourth with three wins and two losses, missing out on qualification.
Namibia will be captained by Gerhard Erasmus, with JJ Smit serving as the vice-captain. Meanwhile, Craig Ervine will lead Zimbabwe, with the likes of Sikandar Raza and Sean Williams.
With lessons learned from their Super Six performance, Zimbabwe will be determined to rectify their errors and produce a strong performance in the T20 series against Namibia.
The series is set to be intense as Namibia aim to extend their dominance while Zimbabwe seek redemption for their missed opportunity in the World Cup Qualifier.
