He is now the leading wicket takers in West of England premier league glouctershire division. I believe he has been told by someone close to mountaineers to keep his current job overseas as the chances of franchise cricket this next season is not looking too rosy
So when will we know whether franchise has gone to shit as well? Eeeish but this is boring. Did u hear about the ZC AGM?

Cephas has earned himself a nice pay check yesterday, winning London's club cricket super over competition. :D

He is also playing regularly for the Lashings World XI, blasting a cool 119 retired from 36 balls last week, (http://www.crichq.com/matches/57398) after being bowled by Ashton Agar's little brother for 34 the week before.

You've gotta be kidding me. This guy has gone crazy!

There were some news about UFOs being sighted in Zim a few weeks back. They must be sixes hit by Zhuwao in England coming back down to Earth and landing in Zimbabwe... This is insane stuff. On this form he must take the Zim Franchise bowlers on with great confidence.

Well, it's only club bowlers ... but honestly, there are not too many middle order enforcers around in Zim atm. I gather he has scored the bulk of his runs at 4 or 5, while during his brief international outings he was more often used as an opener or no. 3, a position for which, from what I have seen, he lacks the technique.

It will be really interesting to see how he fares in franchise cricket, if there is any. I doubt he has ever played such an amount of competitive cricket in such a short period of time.

Cephas could be our own version of Virat Kohli.

very interested to see how Cephas goes in franchise cricket this year hopefully he gets a good run @ the Eagles

Or maybe he could move to the Rocks they seem to be short on batting ......

Even if the standard he is up against might not be the best at least he will have experienced playing abroad against a seaming ball ......
