The square is still there, but not in good condition. The outfield is also not fantastic. The golf course has been resurrected though. Every single dam there has been plastic lined at vast expense because the dams would not hold water for long otherwise because the water table is shot to hell by the wholesale plunder of water. The culprit this time is Stalin Mau Mau who completely disregards the council directive not to pump water within city limits. Apparently a South African course designer gets flown up periodically to maintain the course which is now in quite good condition. The greens are really good. The club house has been completely redone at huge expense. The value of this place is immense.

I also see that Mankunzini is running for office on a Zanu ticket in the by-elections this weekend. It's mind boggling, the guy was languishing in jail the other day.

I really don't understand how the Indians don't make a better ball. Surely just copy the good ones exactly, same core, same string and same leather, it's not rocket science.

Just 1 match today? We’ve gone full strength. Only likely change for the 1st ODI will be Raza in for Marumani or Wes probably

How does Wessley keep getting a game ? Should be playing Campbell today

Looks like Ballance is actively involved today, talking to the bowlers and setting up the fielding.

That's the problem. He's about the only guy that looks comfortable at this level- right up until he goes out. No options.

Well hopefully he finds some form with the bat because his bowling is coming along nicely

So chibhaba Kaia and madhevere all vying for opening spot. What is in madheveres favour is he is a multi dimensional cricketer. Can take wickets also
