A pulse.

In all seriousness, I do enjoy watching the Hong Kong Sixes for the entertainment - a bit like the four X beach cricket series they played in Australia a few years ago. I walked past the Kowloon ground a couple of years ago, it really is tiny and the perfect venue for any event where run rates of over 20 an over are required. The TV coverage is awful in Australia though, Fox Sports will probably air it a few months after the event like they normally do.

National teams are invited to play by the Hong Kong Cricket Association. You can actually watch full replays of the tournament on youtube. If you want links send me a message. I don't think Zimbabwe has ever participated although some Zimbabweans may have represented All-Star teams which they include occasionally (including this year). There were some good players in the this years tournament - Lou Vincent, Shahid Afridi, Sanath Jayasuriya, Jacob Oram, Ryan ten Doeschate, Abdul Razzaq, Umar Akmal, etc.,.
