Nkomo leads Lady Chevrons into Emerging Nations Trophy debut

JOSEPHINE Nkomo will lead the Lady Chevrons into their maiden appearance at the ICC Women’s Emerging Nations Trophy, with Zimbabwe hoping to turn their recent exposure against top cricketing nations into a strong showing at the tournament in Ajman, United Arab Emirates.

Zimbabwe head into the competition following challenging series against West Indies and India, which provided valuable lessons and an opportunity for the team to measure themselves against some of the best sides in women’s cricket.

The Emerging Nations Trophy, which runs from November 12 to 25, presents another important test for the Lady Chevrons as they seek to assess how much they have gained from those demanding assignments while continuing to grow at the international level.
