Can anyone familiar with Bulawayo help identifying these old cricket ovals?

Ground 1 - At Fairbridge/Cecil. & Ground 2 - Off First at the bottom of Townsend Road
I have an idea that was Old Techs.

Re: Former Zimbabwe Test player Dabengwa named Denmark national team coach

I put my hand up. I did my fair share of Dabengwa bashing. But did also suggest that he be at least tried at the top of the order instead of picking him in the XI and batting him at 8 and bowling 2-3 overs. Selection and batting orders those days seemed far more ridiculous than what we witness toda...

Re: Who's coming back for the upcoming domestic season?

Hey Robot, shouldn't you be more interested in up & coming Indian players in the Ranji trophy. Players like Learnedtocarve Alamb, Madonnacant Singh, Soshal Distun Singh, Micar Sabitrusty & Drysa Nunznasti. Maybe you liken yourself to Bitofa Koksarkar. I did write an article once some years ago when...

Re: Zim v Sco 2nd T20I

I don't think Innocent Kaia has been discussed enough. Wtf was that selection. Crazy, guess he was at the right place at the right time. I follow him and I saw he went to the UK a few months to play what looked like club cricket. Guess he happened to be at the ground and they gave him a game. I hav...

Re: Zimbabwe declining XI squad

If we are just doing current, then Mawoyo retired a couple of seasons ago Doggy! I’ve enjoyed his commentary in the Pakistan and Bangladesh series though. Hope that doesn’t decline too! :lol: Did he retire? I though the was technically still playing? True, I don't think he's ever announced retireme...

Re: Whose the best all-rounder in Zimbabwe cricket

Will always be Heath streak but a more reasonable question would be best allrounder of the current crop? Williams - great bat and tidy bowler but not a wicket taker. Raza - can be a game changer with the bat, but not consistent, bowling much better than Williams but still not great. Tirapano - a de...

Re: Second ODI Zimbabwe Vs Bangladesh

If that's the reasoning, it really is ridiculous and illogical to my mind; the actual swing at the ball should be what counts. If he had swung his bat three times behind him, even ten times without stopping and knocked the wicket the final time, would that still be out? That surely is not the purpo...

Re: Second ODI Zimbabwe Vs Bangladesh

Quite right. I find it an unbelievable decision - surely anybody can see that Taylor had completely finished his stroke at the ball, especially with that wiggle of the bat in between. It may well have cost us the match. I think the reasoning was that although he had *finished* his stroke in terms o...
