ZCF Fictitious XI

Post by CrimsonAvenger »

Right, that Candle Light had me in splits. Time to compile this XI.

Priestly Jaymoor
Candle Light
<That hilarious Zimbo sounding name Kriterion mentioned in a post a while ago>
Ryan Ebrahim
Robbie Ebrahim
Barry Grunt (courtesy, Hugo Ribatika)
Alexander Cremerov (C)
Derek Bell
Daniel Jakiel
Mark Olonga
marfu (coutresy: anusha gamage)

12th man: telar (coutresy: anusha gamage again)

Some good things about this line up: White guys are at the top of the order! telar, whose "away" stats are questionable, has been benched.

Any omissions? I could not find that post by Kriterion. So, someone has to update our solid number 3 from that post.

I actually have done an interview with Mark Olonga that is almost ready to go. Talking about his time as a player-coach in the CPL.

I hear the grandson of Duncan Fletcher 'Derek Fletcher' is making his way through the ranks. Hard hitting top order batsman may be part of the next ZRS tour
