Admire Manyumwa

Post by ervinemania »

Does anyone have any information on him? Is he good? Do you know where he is? Why isnt he in the first class system? Is he quick?

Much appreciated.

He took a lot of wickets, very cheaply, when the Logan Cup was at its lowest ebb a few years ago. He also performed fairly creditably for Zim A, although this was largely against not very testing opposition. He was still a part of the Eagles set up when franchise cricket began, but slowly drifted out of their side and then out of first class cricket permanently. Why? Certainly it was initially down to not being selected, however, it would be slightly surprising that he has never made a comeback considering some of the inexperienced options who have bowled seam-up for various franchises over the last few years. Where is he now? No idea, I'm afraid. Was(/is) he quick? No.

I'd have thought that he would be a fringe FC player at best. Don't have any club stats for you, I'm afraid.
