You need more spinners on these tracks

I'm actually surprised by the control he has shown in the last two matches (although I haven't watched every spell). It seems that he is concentrating on his control and not overstepping for now.
...
He even has a yorker

I just don't understand why Raza is still bowling. Cremer needs to be on now, there's no point saving himself for the final few overs because the game is not going to last that long.

For a kid playing in his third List A match ever he's doing more than okay, I'd say. If they can sort out his run-up and he let's himself go a bit more he'll be a handful for sure.

This took me by surprise too! He's finished well today, 28 runs off his last seven overs, and three crucial wickets as well.foreignfield wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2018 1:00 pmI'm actually surprised by the control he has shown in the last two matches (although I haven't watched every spell).

Yeah, I was wrong earlier to judge him on those first few overs. He's shown quite a bit as the innings has progressed. 3/52 are ODI bowling figures you'd take every day of the week.foreignfield wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2018 1:06 pmFor a kid playing in his third List A match ever he's doing more than okay, I'd say.

Yeah, I love this guy. He can be a star with proper guidance. He is, at the very least, better than Ngarava, whom we also tried out mostly unsuccessfully.foreignfield wrote: ↑Sun Jan 21, 2018 1:06 pmFor a kid playing in his third List A match ever he's doing more than okay, I'd say.

Sarcasm aside,
It’s a huge symbolic moment when the diaspora returns.
The best message to sound to a youngster, if two successful county cunts return, then my home is a place I can make a future!

A) there’s money and opportunity in playing for zim
B) that even our best want to play for us
C) no place like home
D) money or not, they still chose to come here and saw a future in red colours

Much rather have an opening bowling attack of Chatara and Jarvis instead of the rubbish we have seen since the 2015 world cup.
