This is insane! Campbell took his son to Afghanistan so that he can get a Cricinfo page for himself?

I mean, he would have not gotten a gig all his life with the setup like it is in Zim (is he even a serious cricketer?), so he might have thought... Might as well try in Afghanistan...

Campbell on a paid family holiday in Kabul! I can't even...

Can someone please post a full scorecard after every match where Zimbabwe players are involved. For someone like me it becomes difficult to understand if you guys are talking about a single game or multiple games who is playing for which team after reading your discussion. It would be really helpful if someone posts full scorecard after every match. This would even help to track our players on match by match basis ..thanx in advance

Amo Sharks aren't listing Hamilton Masakadza as part if their squad anymore. Has he flown back to Zim? He did not play the last match for them too. He is not a guy known to defy ZC irrespective of the way they have treated him, so I'm guessing he has cut short his stint?

This match meanwhile: http://www.espncricinfo.com/series/1804 ... ket-league , has had Vusi, Burl and Raza fail to make an impact, while Mutumbami scored an unbeaten 26 and has affected a stumping.

EDIT: Another update. This is a photo from yesterday I guess, the players meeting the Afghan president. All Zimbos still there except Hamilton:

Raza and Burl have been very poor.

It was again ill-advised of Burl to go there. No record whatsoever in any format. Unless he stays on and makes an impact this might work against him in the future.

Like Ervine, Burl looks more suited to long form cricket. I hope he gets an opportunity in the Test series against West Indies.
