Re: Has supporting Zimbabwe cricket stopped being fun?

We'll never stop supporting Zim. We will always live for this team, but yes, it has definitely gotten less fun being a supporter of this team. The team we love, the sport we love is some ZANU PF idiots political play thing. He doesn't care about the fans or the game, so yes, it has become a lot less...

Re: ICC Men's T20 World Cup Africa Sub-regional Qualifier

Just read Mutendera's interview about selection. Someone with that much vitriol should not be in charge of selection. What accountability does he have for his all failures? I also remember his career. He was not as amazing as he thinks he was. Black players got into the team, but back then, it was h...

Re: ICC Men's T20 World Cup Africa Sub-regional Qualifier

It would be very naive to think that those guys suffered zero forms of discrimination back in those days. It is the very reason why we are stuck in this vicious cycle now. Accountability has to come from all sides. I don't agree with how things are being handled right now but the truth is what we a...

Re: Zim Afro T10

All the money laundering and these lot can't all fly to be in the same room for this.

On a side note, wtf are these names. Why not just run this competition in India and let it be their shit.

Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | Only Test | 25-29 July 2024

Can't say I'm surprised by the loss. We have a habit of snatching defeat from victory. We've got a lot we need to work on and in situations like this, we don't really know how to fix it. Our bowlers don't have too much up their sleeves to mix it up or make some fielding changes to affect a wicket. W...

Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | Only Test | 25-29 July 2024

Sounds like a good fightback with the ball. I'd like us to be a little more proactive with the bat. Have that one anchor and the other batsman ensuring we keep things ticking over. Not asking for 4's or 6's. Just keep the runs coming. A SR of around 70-80. It's clearly not going to be a high scoring...

Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | Only Test | 25-29 July 2024

Zimbabwe has 7 Olympic athletes going to Paris, accompanied by 67 officials, including the General, his wife and Kirsty Coventry who are apparently arriving by private jet. Haven't verified this but sounds par for the course. Can confirm. Coventry makes sense, the others don't. They are doing it un...

Re: 4th T20I | Zimbabwe vs India | July 13, 2024

India showing how it's done. you start strong then you can take your foot off the pedal and control the innings. We do the opposite. Start slow and then try to put the foot on the pedal, but we just play stupid shots and lose wickets and end up with a sub par total. It's so fucking infuriating suppo...

Re: 4th T20I | Zimbabwe vs India | July 13, 2024

We all know everyone will be patting the openers on the back and they are sitting there thinking they did a good job, but the reality is that their run rate and SR in T20 is not good enough. It set us up to fail. You limp to a decent total then expect the batters who come in after to motor and get t...
