This is not good at all. We have lost a worldclass player and replaced him with an amateur club cricketer at best.

Thats a bit unfair, mawoyo has scored a first class century against new zealand a last year consisting of front line bowlers such as chris martin, Franklin and patel. he also scored a number of half centuries. make no mistake this guy has earned a place

What ever, he is not gonna play in starting XI for a while. Let him witness the subcontinent pressure from a close quarter, Lamby can cement his place in the mean time

Good !
Now we can give the very talented Tino Mawoyo a shot again.
Exciting times :D
not good....upsetting.
When i say good, i mean that we now know where we stand.
We don't have to keep uming and aring as to weather or not he'll be back in the set up.
And Eugene, Mawoyo is better than a first class cricketer. I'd prefer him to Duffin in ODI cricket, the same applies to Sibanda.
Both Sibanda and Duffin will be good test batters

Tino Mawoyo will get his chance, he is not SE class, but better than a club cricketer. Zim got to make do with what they have, with a lot of committment and effort, we will do well at the WC.

Mowoyo is a very exciting talent, and I'm really looking forward to seeing how he performs, if he is given a chance.





Not too long to wait now.. :D

I guess will be a platform to prove to the selectors that he can make the cut into the test squad . mawoyo is more of a natural cricketer . I hope this will be his chance to convert his potential to ability . He has really been working hard with his body in and out of the gym. If he remains disciplined nothing will stop him.
