I’m sure a few village sides might be interested now

Ya, there’s nothing listed on Lancs’ website on their 2nd XI fixture list.

No he isn't.

Typical , that's ridiculous . Great to see nothing has changed

[secretzimbo]

It's great to see so many positive developments since Almighty Lord Mhishi and his supreme expert committee made their revolutionary recommendations to transform the game.

We're playing some cricket, but with sad biased selections, not a lot of prep and disinterested and often poor coaches. That's not going to change and neither is the outcome. Zero accountability, they'll keep repeating the same mistakes until we're dead. It's soon- 2027. Last day we ever qualify for a WC and probably the last day we play a top team.

[mnelson68]

Call the team something else , not Zimbanwe A . A total waste of time if you aren't going to treat these games as they should be.

[Pat_Bee]

We’ll still play the odd top team like Nigeria or Rwanda at the African games.

When you combine a poor level of talent with serious mismanagement you get disasters like this. People are kidding themselves thinking we are just some good management away from being competitive.

[mnelson68]

Never going to get improvement from players under this kind of management if you can call it that.

[Googly]

I'll call for it again.
A High Performance Centre manned by Brent for bowling, a Merlin, a Truman, 4 throwers and 2 batting coaches, but good ones, not lazy fat fucks that arrive an hour late and spend 4 hours on their phones.
They deal with the best 12 guys outside of the national players and the national players also obliged to attend. Every single day in there barring a rest day after a game.
Need a selection committee of Chawaguta, Brent, Houghton and Tinker to choose the guys.. NOBODY ELSE!!!!!! We are sick and tired of biased selections, it has destroyed our game.

Anybody who currently hits more than 2000 balls a week automatically qualifies because they want a career and are not relying on a cousin for selection.
