CSA Head of High Performance, Grant van Velden “The Namibia tour reflects our commitment to holistic player development. These tours are crucial in providing our emerging players with consistent international exposure, which is essential for their transition to the senior level. We’re grateful to Cricket Namibia for their collaboration and look forward to competitive, high-quality cricket.”
Namibia Head Coach, Francois van der Merwe “The Capricorn Eagles are very excited to test their skill development in all departments of the game against a very strong South Africa Emerging Academy team.
The aim of the series is to gain important game time for the Capricorn Eagles ahead of the upcoming Africa T20 World Cup Qualifiers at the end of August, which Cricket Namibia will host at their new world-class facility. I would like to see consistency in our execution with both bat and ball during the SA Emerging Academy series.”
