And they never did approve you a moderator either, Dogg. Just think of the shits and giggles we could have if Zolsky was here. Though with the whole 10 post thing, how does hhm keep reappearing in his various guises? About as welcome as gout.

I don't mean to be morbid but I worry about Maehara, I mean is he even around still? And I don't just mean around here...

Sri Lanka also have their own selection issues with Kusal Perera. It's not a uniquely Zimbabwean problem. Some Indian fans feel the same for Sanju Samson. There will always be debates. We just don't have enough quality to make mistakes

How does he not get a game for SL already? ZC does not have anyone close to those stats playing in the Logan Cup

How was Burl doing in the BPL? Only saw that fantastic catch. Never saw the stats
From memory one decent score and three failures.

Basically the same consistent batting pattern every Zimbabwean batsman in the history of cricket (that isn’t named after fauna) has followed.
:lol:

I assume you mean flora, though. Our roosters and rhinos haven't been anything to write home about.

To think Mudzinganyama got a call up after 3 games :lol: well the ICC did say SL is more corrupt than us. To be honest the whole organization is corrupt. We need the USA to take cricket seriously so that they can unleash the FBI on them like they did to FIFA.

Interesting enough SL did send a full stregnth team. they are not taking chances. I don't think there is that much between us anymore. Let's see what happens

One can't argue with Kasuza's call-up, others have done less than him over the last few years. Good luck to him, although he seems to collect a lot of ducks or single digit scores for the Mountaineers in FC in between his scores. Let's hope he doesn't do an Attapatu.

Lol yeah I did. Too much alcohol on the brain.

What’s funnier is the the thought of someone somewhere reading my post and thinking ‘Greg Lamb is our only consistent batsman of all time?’

Lamb was better than Jongwe and Nyathi (buffalo, no rhino), for sure.

Something wrong with a system that picks a 26 year old guy who’s only played 6 games? I’m not saying he’s not good, I’ve never seen him, but where’s he been playing his cricket?
