Re: Positives & Negetives of the Tri Nation T20 Series ( Aus, Zim, Pak ) & 5 match odi series ( Zim Vs Pak )

Decent, line length bowlers have been smashed apart in the recent series Which uncapped fast bowler has got the " killing effect ", can take wickets, can trouble the opponent, can blow away batting order ? Honest Ziwira Mkhululi Nyathi Tendai Nyamayaro William Mashinge Kundai Matigimu Sydney Muromb...

Re: [Match Thread]: Pak tour of Zim Odi Series : 5th Match : ZIM vs PAK

This senseless slaughter is doing nothing for anyone, not even Pakistan. Why did ZC even organise this series? It's completely and utterly humiliating.

ZC won't mind though, it's the players and coaches fault - not theirs.

Re: #ZCBOARD MUST GO

The ICC have voiced their support for ZC, thus the issue of governance of cricket in Zimbabwe is closed. Could also have something to do with those claiming they can bring the board down not doing anything. Could also have something to do with the players not standing by one another. Could also hav...

Re: #ZCBOARD MUST GO

The sad thing is, not many people care. I was talking to a prominent cricket journalist who said they were 'over' the whole Zimbabwe situation: players want their story to be heard but too scared to talk. Also failing to realise that, in global terms (from a cricketing perspective I guess), their st...

This is so sad...I also heard a significant chunk of the $2m ZC received to host the tournament remains unaccounted for...

Re: [Match Thread]: Pak tour of Zim Odi Series : 1st Match : ZIM vs PAK

Jesus Christ it comes to something when we are praising a kid for scoring 32 at a poor strike rate by international ODI standards!!! There is nothing positive to take from this game. All it does is amplify the woeful state of cricket in Zimbabwe and those responsible for it. I pray for change soon...

Re: [Match Thread]: Zim T20 Tri Series: 6th Match : ZIM vs AUS

Every time I've seen Zhuwao play he looks awful, yet ZC enforced his selection on Streak and Taibu for the WCQ. He just stands there, no feet movement and tries to launch every ball into the next stratosphere. I can assure you Kamunhukamwe and Tsiga are better players than that...

Still ongoing...

Re: Zimbos in UK 2018 Season

The problem with selecting any other country than England for the RS is that it won't be during their cricket season. This is the main reason England was selected - along with Taibu's links etc it was the sheer volume of matches and opposition that they could experience in a short space of time, as ...
