NPL 2025

Alex making a total mess of it. To imagine they were bossing it against other opposition. They must have sold the game because nothing else explains their performance today.

Its pressure, that's all. It's not a drive pitch either. If you offer a drive you are misqueing it.
Sogo still have to bat though. Its a funny old game.

I see Knackers is back.

He had another lean year in the Dutch league. Averaged 26 this season. Which suggests Dutch club cricket may be more challenging than our first class cricket…

Newly wed. Had other things on his mind.

Hlabangana goes out driving, as does Marumani. You have to wonder at some of the thought processes.
That was a horrible pitch.

Nyamhuri bags 6 against the sugar cane farmers and ZC has something to shout about for days to come.

This NPL is honestly a waste of time for the good batters. You can only get into bad habits facing some of these bowlers. Its why the top guys generally try and avoid it.
I'm yet to see a bowler bowl more than 3 good deliveries an over.
Ya I see Newman is back on a pedastel. It's as if his 6fer was against Australia ffs. I'm sure some of their posts are just bait gor their own amusement

Alex were really disappointing today.

The only game that is of interest is the Takashinga Rhodesians vs the Sogo Rhodesians. Thats a decent standard.

They broke the rules for Archer. They would absolutely do it again, if Muyeye was suddenly the best batter in England, which he isn’t obviously.

They never broke any rules for Archer. They just reduced their qualification period from 7 years to 3 years. Archer was was born british as his father is a british citizen.

I’ve been thinking the same for a while. All this does is make the players used to low quality bowling.
It has a place but should be for kids on the rise, people having fun and veterans reaching

There is an oxymoron in your post.

Fitting, for a moron.

*Their* qualification period! Ie, a self imposed, unnecessarily strict "rule" that didn't match the international generally accepted rule. In fact, I think the ECB rule is still 5 years residency. 2 years longer than necessary.
