WINDHOEK, Jan. 7 (Xinhua) -- The women's cricket series between hosts Namibia and Zimbabwe, which was scheduled to take place between Jan. 22 to Feb. 3, has been postponed until further notice, Cricket Namibia confirmed on Thursday.

In response to Xinhua, Cricket Namibia's marketing manager Natalia Nauyoma said the postponement comes as a result of the current national lockdown underway in Zimbabwe due to the escalated number of COVID-19 cases.

"Cricket Namibia is saddened to announce the postponement of the women's series against Zimbabwe due to the opponent's lockdown regulations," she said.

However, Nauyoma said the Namibian women's team will have a national camp from Jan. 18 to 22, in which the selected 14 players are going to participate in inter-squad games in the capital city, Windhoek.

The Namibian squad has managed to conduct a good four-month build-up towards the series. Enditem
