Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

if we are talking ODI cricket, which I assume we are as we have only played like 2 Tests in the past 3 years and T20I didn't exist in 2004, - then there is absolutely no competition and the current 2024 side shits all over the 2004 one. Sorry, but they probably beat the 90's one as well. Cricket is...

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

2004 team hands down, at least they were getting pumped by the likes of Australia and India full-strength. The current team get pumped by Uganda and Singapore and we get excited if we get to play a full-strength Ireland. Despite 2004-09 or so being depressing, at least it was fun to watch how the n...

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

I tried numerous times to line it up but it kept formatting back to that. You live and learn. I think it highlights to me, how much we miss an all rounder like Elton. It’s a shame Tiripano just fell short in both disciplines. It’s also a reason I’d like to see Cartwright enticed back. A big hitting...

Re: State of SA

The sack the transformation targets off for a World Cup because they want the best chance of winning, they’ll be back for meaningless bilateral’s though. Shows how much faith they really have in the system. Agreed, but still a bold step. Is it though? The targers only say 3 black blacks if I recall...

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

So i have decided get the stats up for the 2004 squad and the recent Bang squad. I have included ODI stats only. So i guess the discussion can be will some players have better careers then their counterparts or will we they be able to replace those that will be finishing their careers soon. Apologi...

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

Counting juniors is a different story.
I wonder if James Cameron wouldve dome anything for us if we kept him?

Re: 2004 Team v 2024 Team

Worth noting that the 2004 squad was kinda horrid too. It was the years just before that, that were the golden years. I’m not talking about he post rebel team. The pre rebel team were no good. Let’s mash them together, onky Taylor and Elton make todays squad but both didn’t peak in 2004, they were j...

Re: ZC to build new cricket stadium in Gweru

People travel to Africa for wildlife and nature. Not for county cricket. People don’t even watch county in England let alone Zim.
There may be, keyword *may* be an argument for a multi purpose stadium built there, for soccer, rugby and concerts etc
But then let the Zim gov pay for it.

Re: ZC to build new cricket stadium in Gweru

Can someone explain issue with Vic falls stadium. When county sides come and their staff they can really tap into tourism aspect of falls as well as when international sides come over. Backdrop is amazing and hopefully will be well used. People are not going to travel to Victoria falls to watch Dur...
