Opening post

Where is he now a days?

He is one of the best bowler Zimbabwe has produced.

ZCB and DH should fight for him. He is such excellent talent.

😂 😂 I hope chetan is not a troll.

I feel sorry for Vitori though, no one cared to help him with his bowling action. It was such a dark time for ZC as well, they missed out on the WC and then no one knew what's next, we even thought the players won't stick around. I think Vitori was lost in all of that.

If your advantage comes from slightly too much flexion it's almost impossible to correct and remain a threat, you lose that edge. His short ball was a really obvious chuck, the other deliveries were marginal.

He did great on debut, it went to his head, packed on huge weight and went on that NZ tour bowling 120, then never got back to his previous form and probably exaggerated his flaw in an effort to get it back. Where on earth is the monitoring of a player that he even got selected for that tour? That's just head in the sand desperation and incompetence by management.

That u19 player that called for chucking in the last squad is back playing cricket with exactly the same action. ZC have done nothing about it. They're happy for him to keep chucking in our domestic league!!! 😂

Except he wasn’t.

If you let the top 10 seamers in Zimbabwe throw to the level Brian was, they would be as good or better than he was.

Brian just got lucky he got away with it for a few years. He disappeared from rep sides as soon as he was required to bowl legally, so what does that tell you?

Don't think Chetan is a troll. He's just out of the loop. He was around here a few years back.

Not to mention, you can’t ‘fight’ for a bowler who has been out of the game just under ten years.

You just can’t. He would be out of tune, and not to mention he was extremely unfit in his heyday.

He would start at 135+ then after three overs, be out of gas and drop down to 122.

It was observed and spoken about often back then. One of the overweight mob.

Sloppy as a bat but absolutely criminal as a pacer to get fat.

You can’t pick up on that sarcasm?
Even though I am Indian and love my Indian cricket team, but during last series against India, I was always thinking that Zimbabwe should win series against India.

I have never say any wrong word(never in my life) against Zimbabwe cricket.

When Zimbabwe qualify upcomming in T20 worldcup, i visited temple and said "Thanks a lot GOD" for that huge win.

When zimbabwe won last series against Bangladesh..i took my entire family to Hotel for dinner...which I never had on my birthday.

Still you people are taking me wrongly or trolling me then also will love and would like to see Zimbabwe cricket as a BIG Winner.

Not at all Chetan, just that last few months we've had some trolling happening on the forum here, and all that is fresh in our minds.

A few Indians here mate, including myself. I absolutely love Zimbabwe cricket team too. Good to have you here mate!

Why do you support Zim? Do you have Zim ties?

I guess my next favourite team is Sri Lanka? Not sure really.

I've always been a great fan of Jayasuriya, Sangakkara, Dilshan and Da Silva, they were great batsmen and nearly always in an underdog role.

Actually our next favorite feel good team should be Afghanistan. But damn do the Afghan players(and fans) make it impossible for us to love them

Has to be Scotland (family heritage) or Hong Kong (worked there for a couple of years) for me. If we are talking full members then I'd struggle to pick, tbh most of other countries annoy me somehow 😂

I don't necessarily understand the massive Zim fanboys from overseas, but it's cool! Keep supporting! :W: Although Chetan visiting temples and going out for big celebratory dinners is a little extreme! Very endearing though brother.

Nah he's trolling.

Firstly 'fighting for Vitori',

Secondly, "i visited temple and said "Thanks a lot GOD" for that huge win."

Negro please.
