The scorecard is still an absolute joke but, sadly for all you Tuskers supporters, it looks as though it's 227 all out, which means that yours will be the side that sits out the semi finals

It's a bit of a shame really as a Tuskers win today would have meant that the 10th round game, Tuskers v Rocks, would have been a real winner takes all affair

Im a bit concered that Robin Brown may be sacked as i think the guy has a lot to offer Zimbabwe cricket, is it a case of the Tuskers players not being as good as we thought?

Or as i like to say the other players in domestic cricket better than we think? :D

I think I like the second point better, zimfan. If we are so enarmoured by say, Mark Vermeluen and Charles Coventry, wouldn't it be great if it becomes evident we have better players still? Like perhaps Forster Mtizwa. Or Greg Lamb? Or Craig Ervine? For the record I'm a Tuskers fan, and an even bigger Sean Williams fan!

Tuskers may have seemed like a well assembled team at the start of the season but as it turns out they are falling short, very short. And Eagles on the other hand seem to be to be rising high and high. I will admit though I'm an Eagles Fan but I wasnt too sure about Greg Lamb at the start of the season. When first watch him play I thought he was just an ordinary player. But he has proved me wrong and if I could find an Eagle shirt anywhere I would buy his jersey!!!!

I am quite suddenly but pleasantly suprised by Greg Lamb, too; and I will humbly swallow my words when I said he was staid and boring. Way to go, Greg!
