nthing 2 watch here same old useless, uncompetitive,
failed players taking to the field ... without the
hamis only looks like a boozers match
0 ambition, progress & stupidity of coaches

[aydee]

Need that 5th franchise back.

[totoro]

Not even Keefe could get a game.

Not too sure why people are surprised...

[totoro]

Well..., all I can look forward to now, is Craig scoring lots of runs, and securing the number three spot in the test team.

I get the feeling Mboyi puts in good effort when he is selected, three wickets already.

Not much young talent to be excited about in the two Logan Cup games .....

Although if the kids from the 19's WC side aren't planning on hanging around no point picking them ?

Mashinge, Keefe, Mavuta, Chibvongodze, Madhevere & Ngavara are all still in Zimbabwe, and have committed to franchise teams. They just don't get picked.

Well done to Thabo Mboyi. He has been representing Matabeleland cricket since 2004, and today got his maiden 5 wicket haul! His 1st FC victim was coaching Namibia U19s at the recent WC.

What a farce. If not a 5th side, at least 2 U23 guys in the playing XIs of each of the 4 franchises must be mandated. Purists would say let them earn their turn, but Zimbabwe is not your average cricket playing country. If you don't give the youngsters enough opportunities, there are hundreds of reasons to run away from the country - cricketing or otherwise.
