Opening post

So, Blessing Muzarabani bowling for Northamptonshire against Glamorgan. In GLAM's first innings, he bowled 22 overs for 113 runs and took 2 wickets. So, not too brilliant and that's a pretty big NO economic rate. He'll be back to Zimbabwe in no time.

I called that on day one. You can’t go from playing ten games a year to what’s expected of County bowlers.

Counties whizz through seam bowlers like cheap suits. I’m reminded of Ngam in SA, a guy destined for a great career but had problems with stress fractures in his legs of all places. It was though it was either genetic or dietary deficiencies growing up. I’m not suggesting a dietary deficiency but I knew he wasn’t going to hold up. It’s bloody difficult to sort that out as well, it’s rest, rehab and possibly a change in bowling action, which is the big worry.
