Re: Match Thread: Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh 2nd Test (2025)

1-1 is a result most of us would have taken before the series began. A test victory anywhere is very rare for Zimbabwe. That being said, the capitulation in the second test is rather disappointing.

Zimbabwe can always uncover some potholes, even on the smoothest roads.

The quota myth will remain a mystery all of 5 white boys in the team. Good team make up all round. The keeping spot I thought Tsiga was ahead alas Mavayo's keeping must be better.
The quota has always been 5 non-blacks - typically been 4 whites + Raza.

Andy Blignaut appointed as high performance manager

I have it on good authority that Andy Blignaut is going to be appointed to a newly-created position of high performance manager for SOGO Rangers who are now surely Zimbabwe's premier cricket club. There is even talk of a player/coach role for Blignaut who, despite being 46, has been inspired by Bren...

Re: Ryan Higgins Turned Down Zimbabwe Approach

I'm not sure he is a significant loss. Most of these guys come over from county cricket and don't exactly set things alight internationally. Jarvis came back worse than when he left.

Re: Croco Motors Zimbabwe vs Durham CCC Test Match Series | First Test |

A terrible performance which shows how far off many of our batsmen are. It is amazing that while touring teams are racking up 400-500 our batsmen are supposedly simply victims of some unplayable bowling and tough batting conditions. Does every team save their best bowling for us? Does every bowler h...

Does the academy have any age rules?
Clearly has some ethnicity rules.
