Re: [Match Thread] West Indians vs Zimbabwe A

Chari just doesn't have what it takes in my opinion. Time to try others like Kasuza or Kaia. Musakanda needs to working on his defence. He clearly only knows how to play one way.

Re: Zimbabwe's Test future

I think The test league only starts after the World Cup so according to the ftp we still have quite a few interesting games lined up next year including SA Australia Pakistan NZ and Bangladesh. The Aussie tour is what I am looking forward to if it goes ahead with 2 tests scheduled. It might turn out...

Re: [Match Thread] West Indians vs Zimbabwe A

Donald only conceded 9 runs off 10 overs.. that's impressive.. if he can replicate this then he probably just earned himself a spot. I honestly believe Cremer and Tirpano can score the runs an extra batsman would. Mpofu Tiripano Jarvis and Cremer is probably the best we can play right now. Interesti...

Re: Zimbabwe will play four day test cricket along with Afghans & Irish from 2020 in Tier 2 System

how many tests have we even played since 2011 when we came back? we might honestly be complaining about nothing..its not a relegation if you were never playing anyway..now we are going to get more games even if they are 400 overs instead of 450. lets earn our spot instead of complaining about someth...

Re: Zimbabwe Training Squad for the 2 match test series against the Windies

Those 3 bowlers will consider a minimum of 350 before taking 10 wickets.. 4 bowlers is the key here..3 bowlers should be a strategy against strongest teams..we have to back ourselves here..

Re: [Logan Cup 2017 Round 2] Mountaineers v Rhinos

Wow..wish we could have some highlights.. must have been a crazy finish. Nyauchi with 8 wickets.. 51 from 20. Not the greatest but there must be something to work with at 25 years. James Bruce might end Nathan Waller's career before it even takes off. Something tells me Bruce can bat higher up the o...

Re: BREAKING: Zim to host 2018 CWC qualifiers

Definitely a big payday for some guys. At least it will leave us with 5 decent grounds. It's a shame Mutare wasn't included. Maybe they were afraid the conditions wouldn't suit them. Colder, higher altitude..

Re: [Logan Cup 2017 Round 2] Mountaineers v Rhinos

Tiripano could be a decent choice for number 8 depending on the pitch. Waller hasn't scored big in a while either..so in tests that could be a better option because Waller barely bowls. As for now is he even in the squad? Looks like they backed Mire instead

Re: SA vs Zim - Boxing Day rumour

It's clear a lot of politicking and negotiations happened for all the boards to suddenly be working together. I think for Zim they obviously increased our money(wouldn't be surprised if the Taylor and Jarvis upfront money came from the ICC in USD) , they guaranteed our full membership for some time ...

Re: SA vs Zim - Boxing Day rumour

As I said before, no way CSA would have announced a 4 day test without knowing it would be approved in advance. That would have been a huge embarrassment. They even scheduled a game against the SA emerging team under the lights. I still think we will get absolutely roasted under the floodlights. The...
