Re: Andy Flower interview

Yeah, great interview. He felt a bit of gut wrenching as he mentioned visiting Streak I thought. A painful pause before he wished him well.

Great interview with feeling good about Takashinga's progress, memories of the past, etc.

Re: Zimbabwe Vs Scotland | ICC CWC Qualifier Super Sixes | 4th July 2023

Well :cry: Feels miserable. Twice in a row. Thoughts pretty empty right now and not much to say. IF this is where the love affair with Zim cricket ends, I'm just relieved that I could witness Williams in the absolute regal class & form that a lot of us expected of him the first time we saw him play ...

The roaring crowds that packed both Bulawayo and Harare stands, seem to have undesrstood it. They applaude Williams and Raza which are all but black africans.
Please give those crowds new national stars (regardless the colour of the skin).
Thank you for saying this 👏👏👏

Re: 2023 WCQ | non-Zimbabwe matches

This tournament is f***ing crazy. We can't predict anything. If SL lose today the ICC will shit in their pants. You guys are way too pessimistic about Zim. If SL lose today Zimbabwe will be the only undefeated team in the tournament and I don't see any reason why they can't win two more? Am I right...

Re: 2023 WCQ | non-Zimbabwe matches

This could be a potential disaster for us if NED beats SL badly. Specially with SL having excellent NRR.

Re: Zimbabwe Vs Oman | ICC CWC Qualifier Super Sixes | 29 June 2023

Important win under the belt and takes us a step closer. But man, don't have words for the stupidity of this captaincy. Can we really survive this level of nonsense at the world cup proper?

Re: Zimbabwe Vs Oman | ICC CWC Qualifier Super Sixes | 29 June 2023

This is so stupid. More bowling options at hand, more possibilities for a skipper to just throw the dice without thinking. Of all the people one could bring back, we bring back Chatara. Simple stuff should have been to bowl Wellington out and combine that with Ngarava and Blessing on the other side....

Re: 2023 WCQ | non-Zimbabwe matches

Just checked this scorecard. What the freaking hell!

More reason to not take anyone lightly for us in the super sixes.

Re: Zimbabwe Vs United States | ICC CWC Qualifier | 26 June 2023

Carnage. Exactly how we should be decimating associates but has hardly happened in the recent past.

I'm absolutely delighted for Williams. These were the kind of knocks he promised as a youngster in mid-2000s and is finally showing that rich vein of form and class.
