Chakabva, Zhuwao, Mpofu and Maruma all getting selected over some younger guys

Only guys the owners would have heard of.

Havent seen the final teams but this T10 doesnt even feel like a Zim competition. The least they could have done is actually give the teams Zim names.

This thing has all the hallmarks of an absolute debacle with no one getting paid and half a dozen players being done for match fixing

I would say this is very likely

Yep sounds farcical, I'm imagining it to be like this league: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xTEf5TJrMc

The one positive i can see from this is that our players get to spend some time with top players, retired and very senior players true, but there is a lot of experience floating around these teams and hopefully the exposure to different games and preparation will help develop some players. Like when Raza spent time with Narine and remodelled his bowling action

This competition has potential. There's some really good pickups, but there are also some shocking drafts. Almost like it's forcing them to pick Indian and Pak players so they can make the money.

The teams also being 3 of them outside of Zim are nonsensical. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a debacle.

Seems only Bulawayo have made sensible choices. Dooley, Mcdermott, Webster and Turner are really good pickups. Hatzoglou too. Be very keen to see how the Aussies do.

Hope someone at ZC is planning a damn good speech for Cartwright.

As for Hammy, I think the less I say about him, the better. Why can't he just retire.

Ahhh this is poor bowling all of a sudden

Haha sorry men

I know it's a f***ing frustrating question to ask at this stage but are there any young players to look up to in this tournament?

They could have just made it T20, that would have been great. WTF is this T10 format?

Adam Theo says all games under floodlights.
This I gotta see. Maybe 100 guys up each tower shining torches?
