Re: Zimbabwe Photo & Video Memory Thread

Some bits from the brilliant youtube archive of robelinda2: Footage of Matsi as a twelve-year old, as he gets to meet David Boon - isn't he cute (Matsi that is)? I was interested to learn that he bowled a few leggies too at that time. Not so sure about some of the views of his coach though. http://w...

Re: [Match Thread] 2nd Match: Zimbabwe XI v Australia A

A look at last season's statistics shows that there are no outstanding regular openers in the Logan Cup: Duffin 466 at 38 Is that merely an error or are you deliberately doctoring Duffin's figures in order to undermine his undoubtable class? These were his figurers last season: 466 at 46.04, having...

Re: [Match Thread] 2nd Match: Zimbabwe XI v Australia A

Nevertheless Taylor at 4 is attractive, provided we find an opener capable of seeing of the shine of a new ball and scoring 70-100 regularly. I'm not sure whether Duffin's that man but I'm not against proving it either way. So it's a shame he's injured. So if it's not Duffin then who? Who are the 1...

Re: [Match Thread] 2nd Match: Zimbabwe XI v Australia A

(In my dreams we field six specialist batsmen like everyone else does, Taibu, Chigumbura at 8 and our three best bowlers - but at the moment you wouldn't trust Chigs with that much responsibility with the ball) Six specialist batsmen have always included the wicketkeeper unless if the wicketkeeper ...

Re: [Match Thread] 2nd Match: Zimbabwe XI v Australia A

So Jarvis gets a chance to prove his place implying the selectors have settled on Mpofu, Vitori, a third seamer and Chigumbura. Interesting therefore when Cremer comes back, add to the mix Utseya and no longer a spot available. What will be sacrificed, a third seaming slot and hoping Chigumbura car...

Re: [Match Thread] 2nd Match: Zimbabwe XI v Australia A

Good selection for this match, gives us a fair idea what the selectors might come up with come the first test. Of course Taibu in for Chakabva if fit and a viable number 8 in, that is one of Cremer (still injured, so unlikely), Utseya or Meth. Taylor at 4 is my preferred option, instead of him openi...

Re: [Match Thread] 1st Match - Zimbabwe XI vs Australia A

The most impresssive for me has been the opening pair. Its not easy to play the new ball from an Australian attack comprising of Hilfenhaus, Siddle and Copeland. So, I wont support changing this opening pair for the next game. Instead, Taylor can bat at No 4.That will add more depth to our middle o...

Re: Introductions

Hi there, I only discovered this forum recently and spent a good part of the weekend catching up with recents topics and post. Must say, this is what I was looking for all this while (while not actually looking, i.e. typing "Zimbabwe cricket" into a search engine instead of lazily visiting cricinfo ...
