Durban, em KwaZulu-Natal, sediou uma reunião com representantes de cidades da África do Sul, Namíbia e Zimbábue, co-anfitriãs da Copa do Mundo de Críquete Masculino da ICC de 2027. O evento, realizado em 24 de abril, marcou a contagem de 15 meses para o início do torneio, em outubro de 2027.

O prefeito Xaba afirmou: “Estamos prontos para receber milhares, se não centenas de milhares de pessoas em nosso território. Nós provamos ser uma cidade capaz de receber visitantes, tanto domésticos quanto internacionais. Isso foi demonstrado pelos números registrados. Há um aumento nos números do turismo. Garantiremos que as pessoas se sintam seguras enquanto estiverem na cidade.”
