Schools Represented:
Hellenic- 4
St Charles S.A- 3
Peterhouse- 2
Mutare Boys High- 2
Prince Edward- 2
Wise Owl- 2
CBC- 1
Churchill- 1
Falcon- 1
Milton High- 1
St. John’s- 1
11 schools represented must be a record for our squads. Only really St George’s missing.
It must be many many years since Milton or Mutare were represented at this level.

We usually get a couple of boys over from the UK, perhaps less guys are being given the chance? I think Brandon James and Luke Oldknow have done this in the past, as has Bawa.

Genuine question, is it a positive that so many schools are represented? Does it mean that a number of schools are playing cricket to a decent level?
Neil Johnson, Alistair Campbell, Murray Goodwin, Andy Flower (w), Grant Flower, Dave Houghton, Guy Whittall, Heath Streak (c), Andy Blignaut, Ray Price, Eddo Brandes

Could be the opposite.
Meaning that the top schools have diminished and sunk so all schools are on the same level
