After a disappointingly failing to qualify for the ICC Cricket World Cup to be held in England next year, Zimbabwe Cricket turns its focus to the white ball with a tour to South Africa for a limited-overs series scheduled for September-October.
The two sides will face each other in three one-day international (ODI) matches and as many Twenty20 international (T20I) games.
The tour will start with the ODI series, which is set to get underway in Kimberley on 30 September.
Bloemfontein will host the second ODI on 3 October, with the third and final match of the series pencilled in for 6 October in Paarl.
The T20I matches will be played in East London (9 October), Potchefstroom (12 October) and Benoni (14 October).
Before touring South Africa, Zimbabwe will host Australia and Pakistan in a triangular T20I series, followed by a five-match ODI series with Pakistan.
