School not starting next week!! Closed indefinitely.
It's truly bizarre. We're going into Year 3 of moronic madness. These kids carry on leading normal social lives, no social distancing, no masks no nothing, yet they're not allowed to go to school again. Currently there are curfews which is just a means for cops to take money to turn a blind eye to bars, restaurants and intercity travel after hours. Our variant is obviously more virulent at night.
Political rallies of course are allowed, unless it's the opposition.
And there are people world wide that don't have a problem with this madness.
If you're stupid enough to continue believing in the efficacy of masks, vaccines and boosters why worry what the rest of us do? Let nature take it's course, we can all fall off the perch and the morons can continue to rule the planet.

They have these Chinese thermometers here that permanently register 35 degrees. We're all clearly mildly hypothermic here, or we're a nation of lizard people.
Yeah it is starting to get stupid and ridiculous now.

I dont understand this hatred of the unvaccinated people. Well I do, but its not based in logic and it is so dangerous. Im astounded how easy it is to create a state sponsored approved underclass. I get the whole nazi thing now.

In some countries they are now saying if you're double vaccinated, you might as well be categorised as unvaccinated. Triple vaccinated people (that's double vacs plus plus booster) are the only ones worthy of consideration. How on Gods green earth are you going to convince unvaccinated people to take the shot when you are busy ostracize people who "did the right thing" and got their double shots?? . Israel has started administering a fourth shot( i.e a booster booster shoot), with little no no basis I science or common sense, hence people are juicing up more and more and still falling ill, how about we calm down, take a deep breath and formulate viable strategies. Booster + booster plus more booster sounds more like " Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

Weird seeing some of these boys after a few years. Falao has grown so much!!! Nice to see him bowling - that wicket to Dickson - sending middle stump absolutely flying!

Smart stumping by Taruvinga behind the stumps. He's only 15 I think.

Interesting to watch.

A few things are very apparent.

Bennett and Bawa appear to have those wtf wonder shots in their repertoire which indicates a lot of talent. That swivel pull for 6 from Bawa and that inside out over over 6 from Bennett made me do a double take almost.

Falao looks strong and sharp. He's one to watch for sure.

Is the tournament being shown in TV?

We are not down for any of the TV games. The rest may be live streamed though.

It’s starting to mess with the body when you do that much stuff. Who knows the long tend consequences. Never before have we seen something like this rushed and skipped phase 4 trials and buried the fact that Pfizer falsified the stats on phase 3. This is unacceptable.
What’s worse is all this ostracising on a bug who’s vaccine only affects the individual.
Vaccinated people still spread the cunt around which is obvious since all cases are increasing.
It’s meant to be about you as an invidious and your choices. You take the vaccine for yourself and yourself only, to minimise effect.
We can’t just pretend this vaccine is stopping the Spread just because ur aligns with your politics.
