Zero interest in this - it isn’t ‘Zimbabwe Under 23’ at all. It’s an academy team and most of the players had to pay to attend. Selection wasn’t open.

Interesting this, Hyderabad is my home town, I think it's happening at RGCS. Had no clue about it until now.

This tour has flown under the radar. Who's in the squad?
ZCF Hall of Famer
22 players in the squad?

Looks like this game is rain reduced to 35 overs.

I see Kamunhukamwe is opening the batting. This must be Zim u33?

Any cricket is good for us, but this isn't an u23 academy side.

It’s organised by Chigumbura Academy. Don’t think it has much to do with ZC. Some players paid to be there. Others are from the NPL Lions team

It costs a shed load of cash to get 22 players to India for a couple of months. I smell a gonzo 😂

The actual official ladies national team and coaches are india at the moment too

Does anyone have a scorecard for this game?
ZCF Hall of Famer
It was livestreamed, but I'm not finding a scorecard. Makes one wonder.

So Ali Hamid is in Chigumbura's academy? I'll be happy to see him make some progress.
ZCF Hall of Famer
Don't know to be honest. it's quite shady and no one seems sure of where the funding for his 'academy' is from anyway. I think it is sort of semi-official with ZC maybe.

Hamid played for the Lions team in the NPL, which was coached by Chigumbura.

This tour is giving that Asia gate vibe, when some soccer team masquerading as Zim played Malaysia or Singapore in a match fixing scandal. 😂
