The battle lines are drawn. Patriots are lined up against Sikandar’s Harare Kings to defend the Great Zimbabwe kingdom, Fort Victoria of ‘Masvingo eVitori’ in the ‘Battle of the Mutirikwi’ (but at Mutare) to kick start the National Premier League. All in all four matches today:

Harare Kings vs Great Zimbabwe Patriots at Mutare
Queens vs Amakhosi AT qsc
Rainbow vs Gladiators at HSC
Midwest Rhinos vs Takashinga at Kwekwe

The biggest news is that Blessing Muzarabani has been added to the Takashinga squad.

Is this the only club cricket this year?
If so why is it so quick? Only a month of summer?

This guy’s finished his degree and is back in Zim. Look after him and give him a FC side! When was the last time we saw two young white fast bowlers opening the bowling in Zimbabwe? 😂
