Re: State of SA

The sack the transformation targets off for a World Cup because they want the best chance of winning, they’ll be back for meaningless bilateral’s though. Shows how much faith they really have in the system. Agreed, but still a bold step. Is it though? The targers only say 3 black blacks if I recall...

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

Counting juniors is a different story.
I wonder if James Cameron wouldve dome anything for us if we kept him?

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

Worth noting that the 2004 squad was kinda horrid too. It was the years just before that, that were the golden years. I’m not talking about he post rebel team. The pre rebel team were no good. Let’s mash them together, onky Taylor and Elton make todays squad but both didn’t peak in 2004, they were j...

Re: ZC to build new cricket stadium in Gweru

People travel to Africa for wildlife and nature. Not for county cricket. People don’t even watch county in England let alone Zim.
There may be, keyword *may* be an argument for a multi purpose stadium built there, for soccer, rugby and concerts etc
But then let the Zim gov pay for it.

Re: ZC to build new cricket stadium in Gweru

Backdrop is amazing and hopefully will be well used. People are not going to travel to Victoria falls to watch Dur...

Re: ZC to build new cricket stadium in Gweru

It is absolutely very concerning and very telling that with all the issues Zimbabwe cricket have, two new stadiums are the priority.

Zim have never had an issue with lack of stadiums ever. The logical conclusion is money laundering or siphoning.

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 nee...

Re: 2023-2031 FTP news, updates, etc

There really should be a strict test home and away schedule.
Some allowances and tweaks, such as ashes etc at the expense of a 2nd tester against Zim or Ireland.
But this prizefight exhibitionism doesn’t make sense.
