I'm still pretty confused about the captaincy thing but i'm going for the Rhinos, spin magic from Cremer and Mugochi, Rainsford the best seamer in Zim and a touch of BRM with the bat, got to be the winners by a mile, as long as they sign on a few more players to make up an XI ;)

1. Mashonaland Eagles: Cybershot, Tawac, Andy24, maehara

2. Matabeleland Tuskers: CrimsonAvenger, Dr Situ-Zim Fanatic, Boundary

3. Midwest Rhinos: Zimfan1, Train Driver

4. Mountaineers:

5, Southern Rocks: Kartik

I have great sympathy with, and respect for, all Eagles, Tuskers, Mountaineers and Rocks supporters, but .......

None of you will be coming in at the top :lol:

Zimfan1 and myself are obviously the only two sensible people on this board :D

You guys pretty much behind your team. Thats great. But wait until you see the Eagles line up. I bet y'all gonna be putting your tails where they should be... in between your legs. LOL.

Wow! franchise cricket has shredded the forum into pieces :D

An update though: I am rooting for the Tuskers, but would be more than happy as long as Zimbabwean Cricket is the winner. Let the best lot across all 5 teams make it to the national side...
