A fair review. ZCs incompetence continues unabated, but I think the situation has become so dire in Zimbabwe economically that even with good management cricket would struggle.

Not sure how much these guys actually know about Zimbabwe cricket? I can't remember Chatara being named captain ?

Paulami Chakraborty, a singer, dancer, artist, and photographer, loves the madness of cricket and writes about the game. She can be followed on Twitter at @Polotwitts.

Clearly shagging the boss to get her own column on cricket.

Well, the author's twitter bio says this, so you can decide:
Screwing up sports websites with little knowledge of sports and very little grasp of English. Thank you.
But Chatara did lead in the inconsequential warm ups I guess with some of the folks rested. And the details in the report were impressive for someone who says that in the bio.

May be we should introduce her to the ZCF if she is serious about reporting on Zimbabwean cricket :)

EDIT: @Googly, you beat me to it :)
