ZIMBABWE will host their first Boxing Day Test at home in 28 years and the country’s first ever New Year’s Test this festive season in Bulawayo when they play Afghanistan.
The historic matches are part of a full tour by Afghanistan that also includes a limited-overs series. Zimbabwe and Afghanistan will first meet in three T20 international matches set for December 9, 11 and 12 at Harare Sports Club.
After that, they will face off in as many one-day internationals pencilled in for December 15, 17 and 19 at the same venue.
Action will then move over to Bulawayo for the Test series, with the first one scheduled for December 26-30 and the second being played from January 2-6.
