Lol only just realised Tari is playing for Rhinos. Presumably he's not being sent down for manslaughter then? Or are they just not bothered at ZC :lol:

Also assistant coach Chris Mpofu, who hasn't played a game anywhere for a whole year, and had actually announced a retirement, is playing too.

Are Rhinos really this desperate for players? I'm going to dust off my old cricket gear, I might be able to get a game for them :lol:

Ngarava is firing on all Cylinders, seems like he is bowling at speed in high 130kmph. He has improved a lot, the duo of Ngarava and Muzarabani will keep the pace department in good stead for next 7 to 8 years if they stick around.

Ngarava is good. I look forward to the bowling coach being selected as hopefully they can teach him to do a mean inswinger.

I would open up with kaitano in the 20/20 world cup qualifiers. Smashes the fasties around. I cant see an associate team bringing on a leg spinner to open which seems to be his achilles heel at the moment

I love big richard, I honestly think he could be as good as Blessing. Left armer as well, such an asset. I think we will see him improve even more in years to come.

Kaitano has played only 2 T20 games in his whole career so unless he does something special this week, he isn't in the picture for me. Ervine & Regis to open in T20's as it stands for me. But let's see who puts their hands up this week.

That first over from Chris Mpofu was golden, I sure have missed him ambling into bowl :)

That Eagles batting performance was absolutely awful, just swinging at every delivery. They didn’t even bat 15 overs. If they just tried to stick it out at the end and got another 20 runs they would have made a game out of it

Madande & Shumba were great :)

A couple of the Tuskers selections today are hilarious.

I dream of the day when our domestic cricket is free of corruption and bribery.

What I find is absolutely backyardish and amateurish is that when a recognized batter bats with a tailer-ender specially a number 10 or 11 with many overs to be played, he has to make sure not to expose the tail-ender as much as possible. I have seen this instance many times with Zim batters. Today when Chibanda and Mufudza were batting, Chibanda was so complacent, exposing Mufudza, with those singles when he could have faced the majority of deliveries.
