Sables squad for Tunisia announced

Zimbabwe have named their 15s squad for their Rugby Africa Cup Pool D tourney in Tunisia next month.

The matches which include the hosts and Burkina Faso is a path to the World Cup in 2023.

Hilton Mudariiki captains the squad which has newbies  Doug Juszczyk and Brandon Mudzekenyedzi.

The team travels to Tunisia directly on 4 July and is in camp for two weeks before taking on Burkina Faso on 13 July and then the hosts four days later.

If Zimbabwe win Pool D, they will most likely meet Madagascar in the quarter-finals and then Namibia in the last four in July next year.

The winner of the Rugby Africa Cup will secure the ticket to the World Cup, with the runner-up taking part in the Repechage set for France.
