Very Very early days but is Luke Jongwe the all-rounder that Zimbabwe have been craving and a like for like replacemnt for Chigumbura and also a valid Bowling option?
Following on from a successful (personal level) under 19's world cup already has a hundred in first class cricket and a 4 wicket haul. Definetly one to watch methinks

Jongwe is like Brian Lara and Curtley Ambrose rolled into one.

Move over Moor-mania, the Jongwe Juggernaut is here. Its happening right here, right now - make no mistake... (to be uttered at the highest pitch and accent of Danny Morrison)
On a serious note, he certainly seems to be the best young talent we have unearthed since Chatara, and the best with respect to batting in ages.

Has anyone seen him bowl recently? Last thing I heard was that he's quick but lacks control, but that was some time ago.

Saw him in the previous under 19 World Cup in Australia and he was bowling around 135kph so one would expect him to of gained some muscle and filled out a bit over the last couple of years.
