Opening post

Sikandar Raza, the man in glorious form, will join Rangpur Riders in upcoming BPL. He will be available for some games.

Durham 75 all out in their game puts their tour here in perspective 😂

It's just a one off. They're a good team.

There has to be politics involved with this Pakistani keeper.

How can a young guy be a pro athlete looking like that. I keep counting the fielders in case he's eaten somebody.

He's the nephew of Moin Khan. Something stinks. He dropped two standard catches because his reflexes simply weren't good enough, nor did his agility show any sign of being up to international cricket. It just doesn't look good at all. How's he passing fitness tests???

Moin Khan is his father 🤣🤣🤣.

I'm hearing they dropped Akmal because he failed a fitness test 😂

Clearly this guy gets a pass on tests. He's not s**t, but surely they have better guys.

Pakistan have a great bowling line-up.

I didn't see Scrimshaw in the Blast last night? Is he in the England squad? He's right up there with Woods and Archer for pace.

No, I just checked. Must be injured. He is a real handful.

Ya Pakistan are shadier than us with their selections 😂 😂

George Scrimshaw was playing for Northants yesterday lol, picked up 2/38.

Notts tonight, Raza has hopefully done enough to get picked again, him and Ravi Bop won that last night.

I’d seen Northants have Ashton Agar for a few fixtures, guessing Raza will be coming back for that India tour then off back to England for the rest of the blast and his hundred gig.

Solid 29 from Tawanda 😂

Raza signed for SKN Patriots in CPL 2024.
ZCF Hall of Famer
He had a good game yesterday.

Incredibly, I just bought tickets go to a Northants T20 in July as I'm over there....and then after I paid, I just realised it clashes with the Zim-India series and so Raza won't be there. Fml.

Blistering 34 off 16. Freezing cold and wet in Derbyshire 😂 this blast gig is overrated.
ZCF OriginalLegend
Old tawanda 😂
ZCF OriginalLegend
Tawanda hasn’t played for ages and Raza/Manchester Originals have been abysmal 😂
ZCF Hall of Famer
It's brutal, you have to fire!

He will keep getting opportunities though.

You need some luck as well.

Blistering 130 for old PJ in some Irish thing. Raza not playing for Northants in the blast anymore?

Withdrew due to injury. He’s with our national squad in Harare camp doing light training.

Very literally playing for a contract this week. 1 opportunity. Brutal business

Ordinarily it's terrible. PJ is the one guy who doesn't have to worry about money. Obviously he wants to do well and deserves to, but money is not the issue.

Actually there are a couple of guys in our system that don't have to worry about cash, if it goes wrong there's no financial pressure.

29 striking at 80. Think they were looking for quick runs this morning. Who knows if he’ll get a second innings. Tawanda out for 10 in the same game

There’s one more round of fixtures after this, maybe Shades will get another shot.
