Re: Zimbos in UK 2018 Season

Googly, most English clubs would like to have overseas players as it's good for them, and great for the player. For years it's been a win for both parties. The problem now is the visa rules have made it an absolute minefield, and so many clubs ( including my own) are just steering clear. It's a mass...

Re: [Series Thread]: 2018 ICC World Cup Qualifier | Non-Zim Matches

Agreed Googly, HSC looked absoulutely brilliant yesterday, with a great crowd in. Good that Sky Sports showed it live (if you're in UK as I am), and will now show a few more games. Btw, that's my kind of triathlon!....

Re: Cricket documentaries, zim documentaries ?

On Youtube there is a really good documentary about Zimbabwe called Finding Mercy. It's about a white girl who goes back to Zim to try and find her best friend , who is black. The decline she finds on her return is shocking.

Re: Which side was better

Interesting that Stanley Marisa is in the 2002 and 2004 sides. I've played against him a couple of times. He's playing club cricket here in England for Cove CC in Hampshire. Decent left handed bat, and a nice guy. We had him absolutely plumb first ball in one game and he went on to get a big score.

Re: Zimbabwe Coup underway?

Truly amazing scenes in Harare. Raise your glass to the hundreds of thousands of Zimbabweans who have come out to hopefully see the back of a man who has wrecked a once prosperous country.

It's big news here in England. Here's to peaceful and prosperous new Zimbabwe.

Re: One wicket, one run

In an ideal world, i'd lock Pariah and Watermelon in a room and let them get on with it. However, I have a nagging suspicion that they are the same person. It makes visiting this forum a chore at times. In theory, we are all here because we support Zimbabwe cricket and want to see them do well, but ...

Re: [Match Thread] 1st Test, Zimbabwe vs West Indies

Did anybody else notice how happy the team looked throughout the day, even when it was 170-3? Was it just me or did they seem to be really enjoying their cricket?

Great day's test cricket...
