LANCASHIRE's pre-season tour of South Africa will be sponsored by ICL, the international computer company.
Lancashire's tour will be based in Cape Town and the team will play in the prestigious Boland Bank One Day tournament against Western Province, Boland and Yorkshire as part of their preparations.
There will also be two three-day matches against a Northern Forum XI at Bellville CC and an Emerging Bowland XI at Boland Bank Park.
Two one-day warm-up games are scheduled against a Western Province Academy.
The Quadrangular Tournament starts on April 5 with Lancashire playing Western Province at Newlands and the final will be held on April 8, also at Newlands.
Head Coach Dav Whatmore commented: "We are extremely grateful for the support from ICL. The Players will play a vital role in promoting the name of ICL both in South Africa and in England during the coming season."
