should be a good tour for England A and should see most people in the system get a game or two somewhere against some good opposition.

Looks good.

When can we expect a CW "A" squad to be named, with the tourists arriving on the 1st? I'd imagine it would coincide with the naming of the first team?

The first-class "A" squad will, indeed, be named on May 1, and the one-day squad some days later. The players selected will be assembled in a CW Academy training camp, to simulate touring conditions and keep more CW players playing cricket against England "A".
