Afghanistan cricket board on their twitter confirming 3 match ODI series against Netherlands starting Jan 21st and in the same article mentioning 'this will be followed by an away series against Zim in Jan/Feb'

Zimbabwe have got SLN in Jan/Feb, so it has to be after that series.
SL series starting from january 16 so most probably Afghanistan series will take place in february

I hope flights availability won't be an issue for that SLN tour to go ahead. Even if the current situation prevails, ZC should have ways to send team to SLN be it via some other country.

They are in talks with South Africa and the West Indies for next year. Hopefully that works out.

Busy Schedule is not a big achievement. Playing competative cricket and beating these sides would what Zim needs, to get back their importance in cricket. Many of these teams will send their C or D time. Zim will have huge opportunity

I vaguely recall we were suppose to host West Indies in 2019 but it never happened. Good to see it might happen next year.

Based on recent info or the FTP (which is subject to change) games we might get in 2022:

Home:
Afghanistan - 3 ODIs (Super League), 5 T20Is
Ireland - 3 ODIs, 3 T20Is
Bangladesh - 5 ODIs, 3 T20Is
India - 3 ODIs (Super League)
Netherlands - 3 ODIs (Super League)
West Indies - 1 Test, 5 ODIs
South Africa - Not in FTP so not sure
Afghanistan (Supposed to be in 2022 but will probably be played another year) - 1 Test, 5 ODIs, 2 T20Is
Ireland (Supposed to be in 2022 but will probably be played another year) - 1 Test, 5 ODIs, 3 T20Is

Away:
Sri Lanka - 3 ODIs (Super League), 3 T20Is
Australia - 3 ODIs (Super League)

The Bangladesh series is supposed to be 2 Tests, 3 ODIs. Will probably be trimmed to 1 Test given recent precedent.

Not an intention to hurt Bangladesh, but it seems Bangladesh position in next cycle of WTC will be under scanner if they are unable to win a single test in present cycle.At present they are playing worst cricket with off the field issues ruling over performance

WI & SL wont be under scanner as they won some games in WTC

Ireland can't be super league games, those games are already played. It should be a normal series.
