Logan Cup 1st Round (Tuskers vs Eagles & Mountaineers v Southern Rocks)

Stone dead that was….

If you’d had about 50 beers and washed it down with a bronco

Just seen that Matthew Welch run out, classic ball watching causing commotions. Masunda better watch out next time they bat together

Eagles players unhappy with 5 blatant decisions against them, 3 batting and two bowling. Surely these umps need to quit, I mean why do that? Eagles have some clout, should go down in captain's report.

Why are umpires actually consistently anti-Eagles? Pretty much everyone else in the system is pro-Eagles, they get all the best players and signings and funding and all the board and admin love them. And yet the umpires have, for years, been consistently against them. Very weird.

Did well to get the draw, well done to Masunda for his glacially slow innings holding out for the draw. Although these new decks they've laid at Takashinga earlier in the year are batters paradises.

Two years ago in a Tuskers vs Eagles match the match referee/umpires fined Ngarava and Chivanga a couple of hundred $ each for behaviour whilst Jongwe and the Tuskers captain who were dishing out more abuse than anyone all match, got away with it

It's all recorded. It's easy to end this nonsense, they're messing with people's careers. Is that not what the Director of cricket should be doing? They're cheating and it's on film. Demand an explanation and get rid of them. There's absolutely no reason to tolerate it. Get Elon Musk onto an AI umpire design , will take him a couple of hours and send these okes off to sell Buddy Cards and cigarettes where they belong.

Well you know umpiring standards are bad when Iknow Fuckall is deemed the best of the lot and is promoted to the international panel

Umpires keeping the game balanced as they should. See nothing wrong here hey

Frankly though...

The umpiring isn't any worse than the players, pound for pound...

I see Ali Frost is back, and was fielding as a sub during the game in Mutare.
