Hami captain, and Cremer vice. I hope that their game doesn't suffer.

Think Cremer has done a Cycle here
HGH/trembolone?

I can't really complain about this appointment. Timing must have really outdone raza here, considering his form.

Lol at only a month ago hammy being dropped from the team and now the national skipper

a few confusing points .....

-Why has it taken this long for Hami to made captain?? Surely he could have been given the little 'c' before Elton and even BRMT ??

-If Hami was seen as not being good enough to be in the side only a matter of months ago, it seems odd that he is now seen as the best fit for captain .....

-Raza was made captain of the t20 side in the India match and was seen by a leader by most, now he isn't even the new vice captain ......

Anyways I'm happy with the decision Hami has been a great servant for Zimbabwe cricket and clearly a player the others look up to, let's hope the captaincy brings the best out of his batting much like it did for BRMT ......

All the best to Mudhara Hammy.


It seems Hamilton has always been reluctant to leas the side and apparently was approached a couple of times turning it down. In my opinion that could have been one of the main reasons ZC have been so harsh on him cos he left egg on their faces. Ham as captain would have been a good story and a face saving one 5 & 10 years ago.

Ham has been dealt a bad hand all 5hese years by ZC one of worst insults was being replaced by Chopper for the WC.

Raza not yet interested in captaincy. Said he wanted to focus on his game. Also hinted that he was not interested in the polotics that comes with the position.

That's the difference between a sensible person like Raza and a stupid 'senior' journalist Mehuli Sibanda who brings his nationality into picture to shame him

This is very strange from Hammy:
"I was not exactly expecting this. I didn't think I was going to be one of the front runners. I have been waiting for my turn for such a long time, I never thought it was going to come, I thought it had evaded me."

Totally contradicting everything we have been saying about Hammy and the captaincy, ie him being reluctant to take it up.
