‘Zim’ T10 and yet the majority of the teams are named after places outside of Zim. Ok!

How many Zim players should play at any given time.

I thought one of the teams was to be based in Namibia?

In saying that, some decent names if that's who is already signed up.

Can't wait to see Shahnawaz Dahani and Bhanuka Rajapaksa in action. You just know when those two get together you can throw out all the record books!

:?


I guess Ashton Turner is a reasonable get, but still... the Stanbic T20 seemed to attract a higher calibre.
