Zimbabwe Under 25s UK Tour (2025)

[Andy31]

Frost is injured

Thank you
Makes more sense now.

From what I've been told, Frost is actually highly regarded and Houghton is particularly impressed with Taruvinga, Kamwemba and Nat Hablanganahanavavz (spelling).

Been told that Shungu is also a future spinner to invest in, so there's things to work with at the very least.

Shungu is a seamer. He’s good.

Victor chirwa is doing well in the ongoing UK tour. I hope he has corrected his bowling action !!

Isn't Eric chauluca the head coach of the Zim women's team?

They did ok under Brent, but that didnt work out.
Isn't Eric yet another relative of one of the bosses?
This is just a family run business. Shingi is looking after them as well.

Under 25s are being coached by Houghton assisted by Adam Chifo and Eric Chauluka who is Givemore's young brother.

The National ladies team is coached by Walter Chawaguta assisted by Trevor Garwe

Who even are these random teams we are playing?

Matt Welch appears to have had an abysmal tour.

That team have Alex russel and other former England u19 players and county second XI players. Not at all a random team.

He had three first ball ducks in a row! Not helpful

Challengers are a Select XI from the Minor Counties. Ie, the best players without a pro deal at the moment.

A good side, but a shambolic one to lose by 200 runs against, seeing as not one of them is a current professional.
