He played against my old club TCC last summer here in the Uk, and the reports were very positive. In fact I know for a fact they wanted him this season and are going to get in contact with him for next season. I got a call from the chairman last month.
The skipper mentioned he made bowling look very easy and hit the bat hard, though he looked lazy. That's the kind of report I've heard about Brandon, all the talent in the world but slightly lazy. In fact Dipaz has admitted as much to me when we've spoken.
I watched the back end of his 89 he scored that day and he smacked the shit out of it; hit the ball ferociously hard. Never saw him bowl, though, which was a shame. TCC's skipper texted me after the game and asked me if I know him well enough to get him for this season but at the time I was trying to get him at my club![]()
Really hope the guy sticks with cricket because he desperately wants to play for his country.
I'd like to see him in the division I'm in, which is the one above what he played last year.
Heard only good things about Brandon, and if things change in the regulations I will probably try and tap him up for next season.

You boys are in a sound position with that side you have this year and, I assume, next year.

The Zimbabwe cricket side to represent the country at the Africa T-20 Cup in South Africa is now in camp preparing for the annual competition featuring South African provincial sides and three national sides.
The team assembled for camp on Monday and is set to leave for South Africa on Thursday next week.
Head coach, Douglas Hondo is satisfied with how preparations are progressing, pointing to the importance of the tournament in exposing budding players to top competition.
Tymcen Maruma, Neville Madziva and Peter Moore are the more experienced players in a side dominated by academy players.
The Africa T-20 Cup features 13 South African provincial sides and three national sides; Zimbabwe, Kenya and Namibia.
The sixteen participating teams will be in four pools of four, with the teams from each pool playing all of their matches at one ground across a single weekend.
Zimbabwe open their campaign with an encounter against Kwazulu Natal on 15 September before clashing with Border on the 16th.
The Zimbabwean side will conclude pool matches with a clash against Boland on the 17th.

Its the perfect time to select 5 or 6 bowlers in the A- squad Welly , Madziva, Mumba, Nathan Waller, Mavuta, Chouya, etc so we can get it right for the West Indies series...
