Re: How strong has our domestic cricket been

Probably the Proctor era and immediately after. Club rivalries were intense beyond belief. Inter provincial was even worse (better!!). Late 80's saw a concerted effort to fast track black players into cricket that resulted in club cricket (and rugby, hockey and tennis) falling apart. They were usual...

Re: Thomas Curran

The Curran's, Sam and Ben in particular, seem to have deep roots here. If ZC was doing well and cricket here was on the up, I do believe there would be a chance that they would consider it at some point. It's tough to make it in England as a person perceived not to be born and raised there. There's ...

Re: Thomas Curran

The only chance is if he doesn't make it big there, he may want to come back here in many years time to have a go at International cricket. This applies to a lot of players. ZC is in a sorry state, and I'm not seeing it improve any time soon, in fact it will get worse. This latest series against Ind...

Re: PJ Moor

He played in the franchise and didn't make many runs. I'm not saying that he's not capable, because he has huge potential. He needs a good season though, before playing International cricket. I think he'll make the grade but not quite ready yet

Re: Heard an old Barney Rogers rumour

Insulted maybe, bullied no!! Barney is a big strong guy and that wouldn't happen without blood being spilt. He ain't playing cricket again. I would like to see him pick up a bat again, he was a good player, but way too long since he has last played.

Re: Do you think its possible match fixing could hit ZC?

It would have to be a spread bet on how much we can lose by, how many runs a bowler can go for in an over etc. The players are a little limited on what they can bet on. The mafia would make a fortune if they bribed the opposition to lose rather. I think the opposition would be more susceptible to a ...

Re: Heath Streak consultancy Launched

No-one can work for free. He has to make a decent living out of it. That's what the top ZC guys can't understand, they think everyone must live like paupers so they can style. But where is he going to going to get the revenue stream from? I don't know what Heath's plan is but I would like to see any...

Re: Raymond Price Retires :(

For sure he hasn't played coz of an argument with the guys previously mentioned. Most staff and players were dead keen for him to have a last game. So unfair.
