Re: NPL 2024

So who sits out of that line-up? I'm not following what's going on here.

Re: NPL 2024

Where dis you get their list of players?
Can you post the other teams?
It would be interesting to compare the teams.

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

Here's the over. Shocking batting actually.
Hope there aren't any Boycott fans out there or we go again :lol:

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

If you're into autos read Boycott's then read Botham's. They hated each other and have a full crack at one another, but in that English way, less so Botham, he was more direct. Boycott was one strange cat. Never doubted himself for a second. :lol: He faced an over from Holding, going out on the 6th ...

Re: 5th T20I | Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh | May 12, 2024

That's the issue- Wes has had way more than his fair share of opportunity, but you need the right prep. Either he isn't good enough or the coaching and environment is wrong for him. Maybe it's a bit of everything? He had the goods early on, I don't think many doubt that. It's the million Zig questio...

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

Also interesting, it's almost a hagiography as opposed to a rebuttal. I spent a little while reading up on a few things, no doubt he marched to a different drum. I've actually read many cricketing biographies, but confess that I've only gone as far back as the 70's. In fact I cut my teeth on Boycott...

Re: 5th T20I | Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh | May 12, 2024

We just aren’t a T20 country Almost all our bats appear bedy classically trained. One of the reasons we seem to put up more of a fight in tests in terms of batting. What always surprises me with our guys is why they don’t swing more in the power plays. There’s way more room for error as you just ne...

Re: 5th T20I | Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh | May 12, 2024

Everyone is thinking T20 has gone up a notch, watching this IPL. A helluva lot depends on the pitch when a big side plays an Associate. If the pitch is tricky the minnows are in with a shout. If its a flattie the big teams have about 9 batters than can lace it and their bowlers generally give less a...
