Can't agree more. Great thoughts.

But first, thank you for that insight into Shona's lifestyle. Now I understand, I won't question it again.
Wow talk about backing down without a fight. I hope it was tongue in cheek.

You made a decent observation about melonheads shona references, he bullshitted some random babble about shonas being allowed to make their own spelling up and you are apologising to him. Racecard strikes again.

Firstly, it is the Zimdoggy opinion WM made that statement up to save face, a very weak attempt at that.

Even if it were true, that doesnt make it cultural sensitivity, that would only mean Shonas are dumb and cant spell.

I'm pretty sure that no one get specialised training in this domain in Zim. At a time when our bowlers are far from being world beaters, a good keeper should guarantee one or two wickets a match...this would
be a worthwhile investment, whoever rises to the top.
I remember reading somewhere that Wayne James did indeed conduct extended sessions with Regis, Richie and PJ prior to the NZ / SA A series...
Wayne James should be part of the coaching staff as a wicketkeeper & fielding specialist...
