Still early days for him yet, but he's made a very promising start and could well turn out to be a better cricketer than his big brother. Good bowler, and not too bad with a bat either if the Logan Cup was anything to go by.

If Zim Provinces are playing in the SAA Provincial competitions this year, that'll be a good stage for us to really see what he's made of.

Taibu comes back from the indian premier league to play for northerns against southerns and its a good start for him with 38 runs. What a good player for the younger members of the northerns team like masvaure and chakvabha to be around. H ereally is a great player taibu and im glad he's around now for other players to learn from
