Opening post

Zim Women HPC side are competing in the tournament, a mix of youth and experienced players, coached by Steve Mangongo He has definitely got around these last six months, from Mountaineers to the academy to the women’s HPC
So saddened that Kenya are skipping this.

Ya, it would be better with them.

Then Brasil is there. That’s like totally random

First game in the bag anyway, Sibanda cooking with an economy of 1.75 that’s ridiculous in a t20.

See if the women know how to beat them.

Into the old semi finals Steve mangongo has done well with this gig. All the other sides are full strength sides and I think all the other matches not involving us are full t20i’s.

Today was an interesting match, Malawi. Doesn’t sound interesting it was though. Think we bowled 16 overs of spin. It’s good to experiment and still get over the line in these kinds of games.

Uganda and Rwanda showing they’re top class sides in African women’s cricket.

Henriette Ishimwe has been on the radar a few years now. She’s the best bowler in Africa grudgingly have to say better than Nomvelo sibanda first ball I ever saw her bowl she yorked some international Aussie batter in a franchise game. Right on the money and all you needed to see to know she was quality.

Somehow made it to the final

Posted a below par 93, Uganda were cruising chasing it. Collapsed, needed 6 off the last 2 overs; 3 wickets in hand

Didn’t get over the line and the lady chevrons won by one run

More thrilling than watching SA choke again in the WTC final.
