It’s more than just about results, it’s about building confidence, match awareness and a winning culture.”Namibia head coach Francois van der Merwe added: “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 series aim to gain important game time 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.
