Zimbabwe emerging vs under 19s

Post by Donald »

Match on today. Zimbabwe under 19 under the alias of 'Griffins' are 207-6 at the moment. Campbell macmillan and kohl Eksteen with half centuries and kamwemba with 24. Not much else in batting.

Notice the top boys Ronak Patel and Dhruv Patel as well as Shane Bennett are absent.

The other u19 lads are playing tomorrow instead I think. There are still about 24 players in the camp.
I think the plan is to trim down to around 18 (squad + reserves) after these games.

At least they are playing against decent opposition - the likes of Munyonga, Shumba, Campbell and Bennett all playing.

Definitely a good test for them. Milton Shumba proving to be the difference

The Zim cricket app actually shows us that there is a lot of cricket being played in Zim. I wonder how they organise and compile everything. Must be a full time job for a couple of people

Kamwembwa and Campbell macmillan currently on 50s against a decent zimbabwe emerging attack.

Much too early to tell but hopefully have a few international players from this squad in years to come.

Impressive. Let's see how they perform at the world cup but it looks promising

I know I keep repeating myself but I have a lot of time for Kamwemba. Saw him hit something like 170* in a school match earlier this year and it was the most glorious knock.

I hope you're right, but I stand by my predictions.
