Cricket Namibia brings you another Castle Lite series to be hosted in Windhoek. Eagles will be facing the South African franchise cricket team Titans in a five-match tournament, four T20’s and one 50 Over game, at the Wanderers cricket ground.

Hosting the Momentum Multiply Titans is a highlight on our calendar. We missed the series in 2020 due to the Covid pandemic and we are eager to host them this year. This series falls into a conjunction with our first ever APS Pink Day. This day is part of our #Pledge4Pink campaign in support of cancer awareness which includes various events and fundraising initiatives.

Cricket Namibia’s CEO Johan Muller says he is looking forward to a tough on-field contest which is all part of our build-up towards the T20 World Cup later this year. “They are one of the most successful franchise teams from South Africa and it will be a good contest for our team to measure themselves.”

“A unique relationship has developed between the two entities. We also hope the fixture becomes a permanent event on our annual calendars.”

Namibia National Men’s squad: Merwe Gerhard Erasmus (Captain), Mauritius Ngupita,JJ Smit, Jan Frylinck, Karl Birkenstock, Ben Shikongo, Bernard Scholtz,Nicol Loftie-Eaton,Craig Williams,Michael van Lingen, Stephen Baard, Ruben Trumpelmann, Zane Green ,Shaun Fouche ,Picky Ya France.
