Re: 2nd 20/20 Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe may 5th

Well it’s two fold. There’s no quota system because in recent years there hasn’t been a need to, because there were so few white players in the system. That number has risen recently. If there was suddenly let’s say 5 MORE white guys who appeared/returned as well - would there then be a quote syste...

Re: 2nd 20/20 Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe may 5th

Marumani played most of his match as opener, with his technique he doesn't survive in newball. So i like to see him in lower order pinch hitter. My 3rd T20i Xl (I know it's not even going to happen in a practice match :lol: ) Burl Raza(c) Ervine Madande Bennett Campbell Marumani(w) Jongwe Wellingto...

Re: 2nd 20/20 Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe may 5th

... And anyone thinking modern T20 cricket needs anchors like Gumbie (T20 ffs!!) is probably living in 1970s. Even if someone is an 'anchor', that player also keeps taking singles and twos, and keeps the scoreboard ticking. You won't see him 4 (19) in the powerplay, that was probably acceptable in ...

They gave fucked themselves by making changes for today. Unfair to leave Marumani out after one game.

Leave out Gumbie for Burl. Ervine can open.
Problem is, it's not one game. Lad has been failing since ages.

Re: 2nd 20/20 Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe may 5th

Replace Marumani and Ndlovu with Musekiwa and Muzondo in the squad, surely a bit harsh on Ndlovu because I know he is getting wickets at domestic level but idea here is to have some players who are part of a winning unit at the African Games, sometimes they bring in a positive mindset and it works. ...

Re: 2nd 20/20 Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe may 5th

Terribly poor captaincy by Raza, for whatever it was worth he should have bowled out Ngarava and Blessing, a couple of wickets could have given some hope. Instead he bowls Jongwe and the game is over. I think 22 runs off the first six overs without a boundary was a bigger problem :lol: Of course, b...

Wet ball doesn't help , not enough runs anyways.
