What are they doing here, Taps?
As mentioned in the future tours thread, there's gonna be an announcement soon about fixtures Vs SA. I think they are also discussing the early formation of a committee/group responsible for hosting the 2027 WC.

Hopefully we can start a much closer partnership with them!

Yeah that's true, there's going to have to be good comms going forward to co-ordinate that WC, let's hope ZC negotiate well for plenty of game time with them at any level over the next few years.

I suspect Tiripano can genuinely get into our test batting lineup if Williams really is not playing the format anymore but then again didn't they just make him the test captain?

I would personally have a batting lineup like this

Kaitano
Regis
Ervine
Raza
Shumba/Wes
Madande(wk)
Tiripano

Madande is averaging somewhere around 45 in FC so far. He deserves a chance if we even get a test match this year. Problem with ZC is that we can discover overnight that they were preparing for us to play against Rabada and co on a greentop in SA along. Then we fold in 2 days. They will always surprise you.

Lord this is depressing to watch. This has to be some of the least threatening bowling I’ve ever seen in ‘professional’ cricket.

No one looks even close to getting a wicket. would fancy myself to get a score here

Can't think of anyone else. Jeez that's a damming stat. Our depth is horrid!

I didn't know Reggie had the most centuries (16) of any current active player - that's a really nice stat for him.

I wonder how many innings ea guy had to get these hundreds. It would be interesting to compare conversion rates amongst them and other top FC batsmen in other systems.
