Opening post

Vusi dreamed of making loads of cash
so he headed off for the Big Bash
but his hopes were mislaid
he didn't make the Grade
and returned home with a crash

Yeah, I know I made a lot of fuss
About this guy called Younus 😂
Just when the future seemed so grim
and forumites thought the light was dim
the charges of Waller
made us all holler
and momentarily forget the realities of Zim.

Inspired by Zimdoggy - you made me laugh!

Banglawashed by hobbits and dwarves
bewildered by Oompah-loompas and smurfs
spinning midgets
took all our wickets
and reduced us to peasants and serfs!

Clicked on this thread, expecting the worst but laughed!
Well done pie chucker.

There once was a man called 'Mangongo'
Sean Williams can't play 'cos he said so
Waller was caught
Chari out for nought
But who cares 'cos we've got Mangongo.

There was once an allrounder named Chigumbura

Whose popularity grew much beyond Bindura

He lost interest in cricket gigs

Started rearing swines and pigs

Now he is only good to beat a school 4th XI from Bujumbura

There was once a cricketer named Waller

To fit whom the batting order grew taller and taller

His abilities had vanished

But he was never getting banished

Just like a committed Internet troller

Welcome back PieChucker, but Williams won't feature mostly, which means this limerick will just remain a hope :)

Now that you have triggered this again, here are a couple of additions...

We had a legend named Heath Streak

Who surely was a talented freak

He spoke to a bookie

And accepted a cookie

His academy's future is now bleak

There is a tall bowler by the name Blessing

Who bowls his heart out, no messing

But the batsmen don't set a score

We need someone's encore

That's a need that's currently pressing

And...

As zimcricket kept suffering

And ZC streams kept buffering

ZCF poets and quizzers

Kept at it like blizzards

And kept on with their own chaffering

:)
😂

Good stuff Avenger!

We might as well keep ourselves amused...

Nice :)

ZC have got a Director in Hammy

It sure looks like a double whammy

He takes his paychecque

Players have a trainwreck

But somehow, its not all doomy gloomy

There's this kid named Marumani

With T20s, he's bang on the money

Batting wih no fear,

Boundaries he can clear,

With him, hope the future is sunny!

That's the best of the latest batch
The Third Innings
Watching hapless Tari and Kasuza

and even Taylor looks like a loser

collapse again!

enough pain!

Switch off and let s go to the boozer!

There is a batsman turned bowler named Burl

He could give the ball a nice and neat twirl

He started using glue

To stitch his old shoe

Only after social media posts, did his luck unfurl
