The Intercontinental Cup match between the sides, which was due to be played in Stormont, was cancelled due to visa issues faced by members of the tourists’ squad.
Namibia are now scheduled to arrive into Belfast on Saturday. Both ties take place in Belfast, starting at 10:45am. Tickets are priced at £10 for adults, while OAP/Associate/Life Members are £8 and are available at the gate or on ticketmaster.
The news is a boost to coach Phil Simmons, who will blood new players in the absence of county-based stars.
