Re: Discord

I think we should continue using the forum for as long as we can personally. There are already whatsapp groups and discords out there for Zimbabwe cricket. What makes this forum unique is the easy ability to search and refer back to nearly 20 years of invaluable archives. If this forum is to move o...

Re: Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan | Second Test | 02 January 2025 - 06 January 2025 | Queens Sports Club

Pat Bee, I saw a few white people under the trees applauding. I counted less than ten. Obviously no sure, but I suspect they were just relatives of the players... When cameramen turned on the stands I didn't see 1 ( in lettters: one) white man. My stat stands. I have a 47" LED TV set, what brand (if...

Re: Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan | Second Test | 02 January 2025 - 06 January 2025 | Queens Sports Club

When Zim cricket decide to get real and pick players on ability and not colour then results will be very different. I'm sorry but Gumbie 52 runs , Kaitano 72 runs and Myers 42 runs is a perfect example of this. N. Welch , M.Welch and J.Campbell deserve the same opportunities but won't get them unti...

Your main driver for inflation is government spending. The Dems have stolen close on a trillion dollars recently, lined their pockets for the next 20 generations. The most corrupt, thieving , war mongering nation the world has ever seen. No, the main driver of the debt was tax cuts to the wealthy u...

Re: Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan | 2nd LOI | 19 December 2024

Ervine and Williams are finished. Zimbabwe will be better off replacing them with Nick Welch and J Campbell. It's a white for white replacement so shouldn't hurt ZC all that much. I fully agree. From my ousider point of view it's however a pity that there's always to consider if a player is white o...

Re: Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan | 3rd t20 | 14 December 2024

The part which hurts the most is that it was an excellent opportunity to win a T20I series against Afghanistan, who are a very good team, but it was wasted due to poor selections. The worst of which came in the last match in the form of Faraz Akram. Sorry guys, it makes absolutely no sense for me t...

Re: Match Thread - 2nd T20i Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan 13 December 2024

This is a very poor batting performance. 154 is very much a chasable score. They did well with the ball but totally clueless with the bat. Very poor and brainless: hoping to go for boundaries against Rashid Khan is meaningless. Playing aggressively against the best spinner in the world turns out in...

Re: Match Thread - 2nd T20i Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan 13 December 2024

A good first innings: keeping one of the world best T20 nations at 153 is not bad at all.

The question is how to score at an almost 8 run rate against an attack with the world top spinner.

Re: Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan | 1st t20 | 11 December 2024

In a recent past a frequent question was what future of Zimbabwe without Ervine, Williams, Raza.

Today a splendid win without Ervine, Williams and a negligible contribution by Raza.
