PJ Moor smacked 152 off 122 balls playing for Munster Reds against Leinster in a 50 over match today. I still think it's a shame he's not in the frame for Zim anymore.
Highest list A score in inter provisional domestic scene in Ireland. Should be making his debut for them once his cooling period gets over in October this year
Follows it up with a golden duck in the next game.

Found a couple more:

Ernest Masuku is playing in Irish club cricket; https://www.cricketeurope.com/DATABASE/ ... 0662.shtml

I also stumbled across a scorecard the other day that showed Remembrance Nyathi playing in the Lincolnshire premier league for Louth.

I watched Muyeye open for Kent. First game, but looked completely out of his depth, just couldn't get it off the square, went for a swipe and out.
This T20 bash is a hectic standard of cricket. No freebies at all.

Is Ben Curran still a chance for Zimbabwe?

No idea. His contract ends this year but he's had some great T20 games and the 50 over season is about to start and he will get games. You need one or two big scores only and you will get re- signed, or another County will take a look. Northants are strong this year. They've got a shot at winning the Blast. Lynn and Neecham are devastating up front and Curran is in there with good support. Has two shots, a paddle behind square and a reverse behind square that he's got absolutely dialed in. He's a great example of a guy who knows his limits, but knows his game very well. Good player.

Muyeye opens again and same story, struggling a bit. This county cricket is tough, real quality players that give you nothing. Such a mind game at this level

Dips with his swing must be lethal in English conditions.

Spoken to him at length, he's tearing it up and I'm going to get him at Elworth next summer

Yeah I randomly stumbled across Nyathi in a video of a YouTuber I watch.

He bowls (!) from 5:58 and bats from 17:22 in his shiny Rhinos helmet
