Cricket Namibia to host SA U/19 men’s team

Cricket Namibia to host SA U/19 men’s team

Cricket Namibia (CN) and Cricket South Africa (CSA) will host a three-match 50-over U/19 men’s series from 28 April to 2 May in Windhoek.

The series will be hosted at Namibia’s newest cricket venue, the FNB Namibia Cricket Ground, as well as the High-Performance Oval. 

Both venues will also stage matches during the 2026 ICC U/19 Men’s Cricket World Cup.

The series will provide invaluable experience for Namibia as they compete against one of Africa’s strongest cricketing nations. 

The matches will serve as key preparation for the SA U/19 team ahead of the upcoming World Cup.

CN CEO Johan Muller said the relationship between CN and CSA has grown from strength to strength over the past three years, with the co-hosting of the 2027 ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup being a testament to this partnership.

“CSA has been hosting Namibian youth teams as part of their annual Cubs Week and regional weeks. We are proud to return the favour by hosting the South African U/19 team as part of their preparation for the ICC U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup in 2026. “It is a privilege and a great opportunity for our two countries to showcase our young talent. We look forward to the tournament,” added Muller.
