Namibia to host South Africa for a historic T20I
Cricket Namibia's CEO Johan Muller is looking forward to partner with CSA to host the ICC Men's World Cup in 2027.
'This truly is a memorable occasion. The new FNB NCG has been a dream for the last four years and has finally materialized," Muller stated.
'A match against our neighbours, and one of the top cricketing countries in the world, is the perfect way to open this world class facility.'
Cricket South Africa's CEO Pholetsi Moseki was proud to be a part of the official inauguration of the new cricket ground that will co-host the marquee tournament in 2027.
'We are honoured to be part of this historic occasion. Namibia are a competitive side, and this fixture reflects the growing strength of cricket on the continent.'
FNB NCG hosted its first full fixture earlier this year, between the home side and Canada, which ended up being a last-ball thriller.
