I know I've asked this question 10 times already...but is it Ngarava or Matigumu who was the tall U19 pacer clocking 140 kph at the U19 world cup last year?

Ngarava was hitting mid 130s on occasion. Likely to be matigimu

Kundai Matigimu I saw hit 140kph. He seems to have vanished completely since that tournament, as far as I'm aware. He was always a bit out of the loop, as I think he was at school in SA, not Zim, so no idea what he's up to now.

Matigimu was at St Benedict's in joburgh. I think he's done, so am assuming he's going to Uni. He was really quick as a junior but inaccurate. Had that natural whip that you just can't buy. Ngarava's delivery reminds me of a galloping camel. Why did no-one bother coaching this guy? He's got some good attributes, but that delivery stride doesn't have international stamped on it.

That's what seriously gives me the shits about these Zim coaches. He's been in the system for a while so everyone knows his delivery is not great, the coaches will all huddle around and point it out like they're going to get a medal for spotting his shit action but you'd think one of them would give him a program to start correcting it. Aaah No!

overall have to say that this series was disappointing and people might be right by pointing out the coaching might not be good enough at the moment. was Klusener even around? Makhaya and Streak clearly have some work cut out with the young fast bowlers. the fact that a fringe player like Waller didn't really struggle compared to the likes of Chari and even PJ and Musakanda when we have been calling for them to replace him got me really concerned. these guys have the talent and must really be disappointed in their performances. they missed a golden opportunity to prove themselves.

Also what has happened to Jongwe? completely disappeared off the radar.
