Just the ICC being cheap and cutting costs and reducing number of games unnecessarily.
I really liked the old format with the Plate competition for the bottom 8. Meant meaningful matches right to the end for everyone. This time the 4th placed teams are getting 1 extra bonus pointless friendly match next week against 1 other 4th placed team and then going home.

He bowls a much better line coming around the wicket , that was the difference today which is unusual for a leftie.CalZim wrote: ↑Sat Jan 27, 2024 6:45 pmI’m glad we don’t have to play on that pitch again, it has been a real difficult pitch to bat on and it seems our strength is bowling in this team.
Still can’t believe Shungu hasn’t played bet he is gutted to have missed out.
Nyamhuri may be erratic but he is a wicket taker, something we lack on the domestic scene so would be good to see if he progresses to seniors.

Yeah I just realized it after you mentioned. This is complete shit. What a waste of a tournament. The old format was so much better.

Still a good chance to bloody the nose of South Africa and England. Nyamhuri is our talisman

There’ll be no coaches left in the country at this rate. We’ve lost a lot over the past 12 months,
