Larry sounds like he's on his second Bob Marley.

So were Scotland expecting to play our national side?
This is a pretty strong A side, but those Academy sides were not great. What a waste of having a good team here. It's really disrespectful to Scotland. And as I said before, a double glove slap for the pros who want and need to play these games.
Get those Academy sides to play a pick-up franchise side. They'll get well beaten there as well.

Maruma getting bogged down here. Needs a couple of big shots to break the shackles, it's time to get on with it.

This A side has a deeper batting line up than our national side. They bat to 10.

Damn that was short lived. Cracking first shot though.
Looks too frenetic at the crease, but you can't judge him on that. Seasoned pros don't like a 17 year old looking to smoke them round the park :lol: he had a couple of overs to settle in a bit more.

This is a pretty good A team that's been picked. Long batting line up, but they're not doing too good atm.

I want to see Evans bowling against Munsey, that's going to be epic.
Nyamhuri rattled down Munsey in the last match.

Luke looks like he's pulled a hammy. That's not good. You're not fixing that with spray and a rub.

Will they be able to substitute another seamer for him? If not we're light a bowler.

Isnt he always on one. I wonder whose arse he had to crease to get this gig. But good thing we have some commentary of sorts during these game. Pretty decent Zim A side on the park given a lot of players may not be available atm. But ZC just need to have some form of consistence in their player selection. At one time you have Chataira almost making the national team to being excess to requirements. Nyamhuri is not part of the national team but he cant make the A side. And for some reason Antum is basically a fixture in all the A side and a couple of U19 players make the team yet you have some real talent like Matt Welch being ignored out right.
