NPL 2024

[Marshmallow]

Another poor outing from welch marumani bossing domestic circuit again.

Maarumani down the order really saving Rangers there - stacked top order rolled by Gladiators and they were in real trouble. He's given them a chance.

That pitch was turning. Campbell brothers and bennet should roll them over

100* off 56 balls for 18 year old Villain Changa.

How good is this kid. He has got to be one for the future.

He did quite well in the u19 tours and warm-ups last year but then wasn’t in the final squad.

Youngsters from Chitungwiza beating the big-money Rangers guys! Gladiators are always a great team. Somehow still have an underdog tag but they compete for every Vigne and NPL title in the last 3-4 years.

[Donald]

Fair play to gladiators. Did not see that coming. Thought maybe pitch flattened out a bit as rangers weren't able to extract as much turn as gladiators did from pitch

I could find Owen Muzondo but don't see Musikewa's name anywhere. Is he not playing the NPL?

Two players I was looking for from that Africa Games success.

Good to see Myers picking up wickets as well. Got a feeling he is walking straight back into the team. Maybe not the T20s but I think he will be useful for the Ireland test because of the conditions. That lineup is going to be very interesting. I’m happy to see Kaia playing again too because I think he has a role to play in that test match.

I’m personally more excited about that than us playing T20s against an Indian C team straight after the World Cup. A lot of pride is on the line in that test match. I got a feeling it’s going to be a classic.
