FLZH Plans Zimbabwe T20 Cricket League for Oct-Nov 2026

Flash Sports & Media (Nasdaq: FLZH) announced plans for a new professional franchise cricket league in Zimbabwe, the Zimbabwe T20 League (ZT20), tentatively scheduled to debut in October and November 2026.

The league is still subject to definitive documentation, required approvals, venue availability, player availability, financing, and other customary execution conditions, the company said in a release. ZT20 would be developed through FLZH's subsidiary Innovative Production Group FZ LLC in collaboration with Zimbabwe Cricket.

Matches are expected to be played at Harare Sports Club, Bulawayo, and a proposed cricket stadium in Victoria Falls, where a grand opening ceremony is planned. The company described the league as a long-term sports, media, and sports-tourism property designed to position Zimbabwe as a leading destination for international T20 cricket.

FLZH is a cricket-focused sports and media company. The ZT20 announcement follows the company's broader push into cricket rights and event management. Actual revenues from the league will depend on the terms of the contractual arrangements and tournament outcomes, the company cautioned.

For the sector, the planned launch signals continued interest in building professional cricket leagues in emerging markets, though the execution risk remains high given the conditional language in the release. No formal contracts with Zimbabwe Cricket have been disclosed beyond the collaboration statement.
