It's like Canada playing Chigumbura's academy guys, what a waste of a valuable learning experience. Put the best guys against them so they get the vital experience we require. We've got 24 good players, we need to expose them, we've never had this many before.
Canada will be decent as well, and Scotland will be even better. We gotta pick a proper A side and not some old and young favorites.

Last time they played only white ball, so looks like it's only red ball this time.
I can't seem to find any news on this tour, where are people getting the tour info from?
From this forum :)

But the news is slowly filtering out

First test April 20-24 at Sylhet
Second test April 28-May 2 at Chattogram

The highly anticipated tours will begin with Zimbabwe taking on South Africa in a gripping two-match Test series at Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. The first Test is scheduled for 28 June-2 July, with the second following from 6-10 July. After the red-ball battles, Zimbabwe and South Africa will shift their focus to the shortest format, heading to Harare Sports Club to meet New Zealand in a T20I tri-series that promises explosive action. The T20I tri-series will begin on 14 July with Zimbabwe facing South Africa and two days later, on 16 July, South Africa will take on New Zealand. On 18 July, Zimbabwe will meet New Zealand, before playing South Africa again on 20 July. South Africa and New Zealand will face off once more on 22 July, while Zimbabwe will close their group-stage campaign against New Zealand on 24 July. The tournament will conclude with the final on 26 July, where the top two teams will battle for the title. All T20I matches will commence at 1300 hours local time. Following the T20I spectacle, New Zealand will remain in Zimbabwe for a two-match Test series against the hosts at Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo. The first Test is slated for 30 July-3 August, with the second taking place from 7-11 August.

Both series are 2 tests. So 6 Tests coming up in the next few months on top of the 3 played already this year. Against a varied mix of opps too. Low tier, mid tier, and top tier opponents.
