:lol: I had forgot about this! What an innings! The definition of a hit-and-hoper, but when it occasionally worked he was unbelievable on his day.

Zhuwao was in the same ilk as Piet Rinke. Completely out of their depth against quality bowling, but on a good day they could hit it further than anyone.

Rinke could absolutely obliterate a club bowling attack, and a decent one at that. He had more talent than people gave him credit for.
That 2006 era was truly a dark period for Zimbabwean Cricket though.
