Unclear what the official name of this squad is - A or U25. Not sure of the squad yet. Or coaches. Is Mangongo involved in this? I heard Dave Houghton was the tour manager or something.
Here are known fixtures so far, but there are apparently more;
July 16th: OD Match Vs Kent 2ndXI, Beckenham
July 18th: OD Match Vs Lancashire 2ndXI, Liverpool
July 30th: OD Match Vs Worcestershire 2ndXI, Kidderminster
August 1st: OD Match Vs Jersey, New Farnley
August 2nd: OD Match Vs Jersey, New Farnley
August 20th-22nd: 3-Day Match Vs Notts 2ndXI, Nottinghamshire Sports Club
September 3rd-6th: 3-Day Match Vs Middlesex 2ndXI, Merchant Taylor’s
If anyone finds more fixtures or updates/changes to the above please let us know and I will update the list.

Hopefully be a bit of YouTube action.
Ya there must be more, 3 weeks between the Jersey game and the Notts game seems a long time to be doing nothing.

What are the odds this match happens tomorrow? The lack of info is alarming, even by Zim standards!

It will happen, there’ll be a rain break second innings and DLS will come into play.

Kent fans who spoke to the club last week have been told the match is going ahead.

What I really find funny is the randoms on social media who aren't members here, and are quick to disparage ZCF as a terrible racist awful useless forum, but lift info from here and pass it off as their own and take the credit - like they have with the fixture list here haha.
ZCF ftw.

I even see Kent have it on their site as going ahead.
Unsure if they will do a live score
