Wonderful news!


I am happy at this. Imagine Vuzi and Hamilton walking out to bat in a test against England there nad us winning them.

Ha ha.
Great news. I would definately fly to Zimbawe to see a game there. Will a sixth franchise be held here?
I would have thought a 6th Franchise would be best located in Harare. The population and economy justify and second franchise there.

Victoria Falls internationals will draw a lot of tourism, I can see capacity crowds attending.
Hi guys.

Is there anymore news on when a possible build of the Victoria Falls ground might start?

Well, they'd be crazy to spend the money to build it and then leave it empty bar a few internationals each year. Either that, or Tuskers will split their season between Bulawayo and Vic Falls.


True that,we fill neglected by Tuskers maybe a 6th franchise will accomodate some guys from Matebeleland North

If ZC are sticking to their schedule, the contract to build the new ground should be out to tender at the moment - although you know what they're like, both in sticking to timescales and in keeping people up-to-date about what's going on...

I wonder if South Africa would be adverse to the idea of playing the occasional "home" match at Victoria Falls? Would they lose less money playing a low profile team at Victoria Falls than they would if that same match was held at a poorly attended Potchefstroom?

How with our new stadium with UNWTO this year maybe a good time to have the official opening with the Hospitality industry in Vic falls playing agains the United nations select to raise funds for the stadium...
