Gazza Brent’s girls can have a half arsed thread to tick some ICC boxes yo.
Chipo is a run machine 42* off 18 today, old Donald could learn a few tricks 😂
Kelis is pretty awesome too for such a young kid. Future is bright if she has someone mentoring her to keep ZC’s claws out.
Josephine is awesome and Nomvelo is always good to watch, who doesn’t like a left armer’s action?
Mary-Anne needs to work on her game, loads of hype and little substance when it counts.

Vanuatu? Vanu f***ing Atu?!?!?!
The board didn’t think Brent’s salary demands were value for money.
Nice one.

If it wasn’t for cricket I genuinely wouldn’t even know Vanuatu existed.
Absolutely f***ing horrific result. People don’t care about the women’s results but really that result should be a resigning matter for the entire board!!!

I don't know what went wrong there, obviously the women were doing well recently. This is as shocking as it gets.

I’m so not done with this. Would previously cut the lady chevs some slack as seems to be the modern ICC way :roll: :roll:
Nah that was the worst cricket I’ve literally ever seen. Far worse than Eagles’ 16 all out vs a Stokes-less Durham.
ZC should just knock the whole operation on the head and send the girls back to from whence they came.
There’s an alarming number of the squad with the old Wez syndrome thinking they’re god’s gift to cricket because they’ve earned some mediocre central contract and they believe the hype and stuff.
I’ve tried to champion the women on here knowing full well nobody gives a stuff really 😂 😂 who can get behind a team who get hammered by a country that nobody has even heard of though? Let yourselves down girls.

Yeah, I think people are not realizing the magnitude of this loss. This has got extensive coverage on social media such as X. Even people generally don't follow Women's cricket are reading the news that "Vanuatu have beaten Zimbabwe".
The kind of pounding ZC's image has taken by the defeat is immeasurable. Even though the men's team has nothing to do with this, it could still have a very negative impact on them.

Women’s cricket will be a money pit to ZC
I thin the whole thing is just PC s**t. I’ll be surprised if anyone cares about the girls team in Zim.
The cash is much better spent securing someoen like Cartwright to come home

Totally bro. It’s the most PC, box ticking exercise ever. ZC do it because they have to and only care when it makes them look good, like winning at the African games. I care because I’m a weirdo but expect I’d be in the minority

They have won today against UAE, a much stronger opponent than Vanuatu.

Totally embarrassing yo, they should be paying that 80k from the African games back
Scotland ladies bossed it. Shady Maqsood; quality bowler.

Smashed USA. Beloved Biza player of the match on debut, high scoring with a steady 38 and picking up 3/22 with the ball.

Wrapped up the series win vs USA. They’ve got some quality players like Tara Norris who scores hundred gigs. I’d say our women are more in the mix than the men. Australia and England are streets ahead, NZ won the recent t20 World Cup and India are good on their day. Less of a gulf in class than the men’s game though.

Beauty of the women’s game, it’s a relatively new thing so everyone is pretty much at the same rank amateur level outside of the big boys (girls).
