Opening post

As a massive Eddy Rainsford fan and a true believer he is the best 'all round' quick in Zimbabwe I'm very concerned that at the age of 27 he may be running out of time to make his test debut. Apparently he was injured for the BD series ? So after a strong 1st class season I think he's test aspirations depend on him being selected for the India series and putting in a strong performance.

Any thoughts ???

Injuries have defiantly held him back. I was really disappointed when he got injured ahead of the World Cup, a couple of years back; it was a great opportunity for him. I don't know if he would of been selected in the Bangladesh series, but it was an inconvenient time to get injured again, with Mangongo giving a lot of players a game. Just hope Waller gives him a game soon, so he's not just left to pile-up wickets for the Rhinos. :)

Rainsford seems more hard done by in selection than any of the current group of players.
