Thanks for the update

I'm there for Eagles... 241 is a good defendable total of runs and keeping in mind the bowling attack of Eagles consisting of LEGEND Price, Chigumbura, Lamb and co. Hopefully Rogers has appeared in this match and Price will take 5 wickets.

GO MASHONALAND EAGLES

Good to see Rogers back in the main cricket stream although he made just 1 run. Disappointing that Eagles lost. Anyways, BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME

Who is T Chatare who opened the bowling for the Mountaineers? It was his first senior appearance.

I see there is a Tendai Chitara, dob 28/2/91, 'RH Pace', listed in the U19 traning squad. Could it be the same person?

If anybody knows, is he from Mancialand and does he have 'pace'?
