Players I like

Post by watermelon »

watermelon again...

Pierre Rinke: Rinke was good enough to make the team back in better times. He could clear the ropes with the bat and was a handy swing bowler with better stats than Kyle Jarvis. Could easily have gone on to be better than Chigumbara had the selectors not messed him around. Never would have seen this guy at KFC.

Greg Strydom: Prolific domestic scorer, another player from the strong 2006 side. Big hitter and not as fat as he looks. An outrage that he has only played 12 ODIs whereas Willams has been persisted with for years.

Tafadzwa Mufambisi: Could have been better than Taibu, and certainly more loyal. Very quick behind the stumps and clever opening batsman. Captaincy material.

Anthony Ireland: This guy could have walked into most international teams and was ready to take over the mantle as bowling spearhead from a declining and divisive Streak. Picked up a lot of big wickets unlike the current lot who mostly get to play Afghans and Bangladeshis.

Hope the positive stuff pleases you rockheads.

I liked Ireland too. Both internationally and in England he took wickets. But he leaked plenty of runs and was never able to secure a long county tenure. Who knows what he could have achieved had he stayed in Zim?

Strydom and Rinke were Associate bullies

The current losers don't even beat associates. Rinke and Strydom showed the associates who was boss. They were fighters, unlike the current KFC boys.
