Pro50 Championship Eagles v Rhinos & Tuskers v Goats

Post by jaybro »

BRMT is playing for the Rhinos and they've dropped James Bruce .....

Both Pakistan imports playing for Eagles, more Pakistani players than white guys in the Eagles side .....

Not sure if the Rhinos have been instructed to open with Musakanda and Moor by Streak ?? But if so it's not working both guys out early in both matches .....

No runs for Hamilton. Big questions over who opens the batting next week.

Absolute lottery who opens !!! It could be any of Hami, Chamu, Moor, Musakanda, Mire or even Raza .....

I have a feeling they wanted to open with Moor and Musakanda that's why they were opening for Rhinos. This would allow them to play a batting order like this

Moor
Musakanda
Ervine
Burl
Raza
Williams
Mire
Nathan Waller
Cremer
Bowler

I wonder what happens if Vusi 41* makes a big score today or if Waller gets another 50 plus score ??

What do the selectors do then ?

And Vusi gets out as I type that :lol:

If Waller makes another 50+ score how can you leave him out? Have to reward form.

I don't understand why Mashonaland got the Pakistani imports. Wouldn't it be better to put one at say, Mountaineers and the other at Tuskers? Putting them in the same team just deprives someone like Diplock of an opportunity.

With 4 sides I don't think there is room for random Pakistani imports, maybe if we had 5 sides it would be ok, unless they were high profile players I just don't think it's worth giving Haider or Jahlat a run instead of Diplock or Musoko .....

Are we sure these guys aren't attempting to become Sim citizens and play for Zimbabwe ?

It will be Williams and one other who is added to the squad.

A lottery who the one other is though.
