Knackerville and Burl had a stand up fight last game, packed his spiders and left before the post match chat.
Whether he opted not to play this game or its disciplinary who knows? He was the captain as well.

What the actual Hell?? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Tell me more dude, You cant just dangle that carrot and not elaborate? :D

Anyway Burl played very well.

Mayavo and Musikewa looked good in their brief stays. Musikewa hit wrong shot but picked man out and mayavo had a brain fart and charged at bowler when he had already hit a boundary early in over and should have milked singles.

Burl not the first to have ‘words’ with Naqvi this season.

His arrival has certainly ruffled some feathers.

He needs to be careful or he will end up the Kevin Pietersen of zimbabwe cricket. We need unifiers in the dressing room despite his talent this does not bode well.

Ya so far he's had head ons with Welch, Williams and Burl.
I think he's kissed and made up with Nick.
Pops was in the coaching set up at Tuskers, but I think that's done now.
Only difference here is Ryan is in his team. Apparently he said Ryan was disrespecting him, which of course is entirely possible :lol:
Really not sure what any of the blow ups were about. Clearly he has a knack (see what I did there) of ruffling feathers. I most certainly don't have a problem with that. It's an Aussie trait.
He's a good player, I hope he sticks around.
Some abrasion is good, not everyone can be friends.
There's a line between fitting in and thinking fuck this for a game of soldiers and he's probably quite close to it. As I said we need Antum around, he's great for our cricket.
I've changed my tune as you can tell.
There's way too much pally pally amongst our players, we need some animosity.

Ok I've just been told that Knackers wasn't arguing with Burl, but there was a heated dispute as to who should be in the playing XI and Burl was in agreement with him. Maybe I got that badly wrong. Sorry if I offended.
Curran ahead of Masvaure and it caused a split. That's an interesting discussion all by itself. Both good players probably not in good form.

Knackers has gotten a bad injury apparently, possibly a torn tricep. I wish him a speedy recovery. Doesn't sound good.

Now I'm being told it was over bowling changes.
Interesting stuff.
There will always be disagreement over that. It doesn't usually escalate though.

How good was Mubayiwa last night!! I told you he's a good bowler.
Durham are a really good team and we're getting the top guys out, but as usual letting them off the hook.
Our batting is letting us down. We play these teams often enough and we'll improve, some guys are overawed but others know they can compete.
Burl played well but I thought he looked after his 50 a bit there. A win was unlikely by then but he should have played more shots.
