Cricket Fiji is heading into its busiest season in recent times with a host of tours and competitions lined up.

National coach Shane Jurgensen says with the Korean tour to Fiji set to begin tomorrow as well as the national side’s tour to India and the East Asia Pacific qualifiers in Australia in November, the association is looking forward to exposing the local players.

“It’s a really exciting time. There is a lot of stuff happening now and it’s a really important period for us as an organization. So we will see how things will go with this tour and what’s to follow.”
