Some really good snaps in hat album isn't there. Love the photo's of the Harare Sports club during the 1992 test match. I can't believe how bare the ground was, and how open. To be honest I liked it better like that.


When did all the renovations at Harare actually take place ? Does anybody know ?

The pictures of the inaugural just makes me appreciate the cricket in Zimbabwe and the talent we have. That team was made of part timers who doubled up careers with cricket, veterans who were too old to be playing the game,great talents that needed to be exposed. Hats off to the people who made it happen i am forever in your debt for bringing the greatest sport in the world to Zimbabwean borders.

408. Long before Bradley Wadlan this English left-arm bowler played a single List A match for Rhodesia, albeit with limited success. Who is he?
