Game on today

Seems the games are now T20s? Good start for the Academy side though.


This is a T20 quadrangular.

There were 2 additional 50 over games beforehand.

Wow that chapfombo can really turn a ball. Never heard if him as an up and coming player but he got plenty of turn and bounce. Leg spinner

Think he’s about 23-ish. Has played a lot of club cricket the past five years. Random selection, as is most of the squad - as usual. It’s a Chigumbura XI

I will be fair and say he looked Good. I won't say very good as it's Rwanda but he got turn and bounce and looked the part.

Probably. He’s Mukuhlani’s cousin and mouthpiece. What Mukuhlani and Makoni want to say but can’t, they tell Mawoza to say. Been the case for years. Like when Mukuhlani was issuing death threats to people during the attempted coup, from Frank’s phone.

The problem with ZC is that the people in charge just simply aren't very smart. The are just smart enough to know how to steal money and live the high life, but I doubt they have very high comprehension or analytical skills.

Good old ZC and their crazy shenanigans 😂 bags of charm so can get away with it.

Mr Mukhulani and Ozias Bvute are very smart guys. You don't get to the top of the tree unless you've got skills.

I just don't know how hands on he is. It's very disappointing that Frank has resorted to his Rhodesian rhetoric. Obviously the issue is he's not censored by his bosses, worrying because he now actually has a formal post at ZC and doubly worrying because it continues to reveal the dark and dangerous side to ZC. Or perhaps most worrying of all that they think so little of the public that they're quite happy for Zolsky to be their informal/formal mouthpiece.

It's a bit weird because they want the public to rubber stamp their plans, but they're not reading the room.

They obviously don't need anyone's good will or approval but some small part craves it.

It's the mark of any dictatorial folk, with no accountability you eventually get a God complex.

I don't know whether Frank really believes Danielsson is AC or he's just using the opportunity to have a dip at him. If its the latter that's intriguing. Why would he be doing that? I see the Dominus Sports thing has reared it's head. I wonder if they're going anywhere with that?

Perhaps it's nothing more than a smokescreen because for some reason they're feeling the heat a bit? However nothing is ever quite as simple as it seems here.

These guys are insane

AC’s sock puppet account 😂

Sure he has better things to do.

Ya, you’ve got to be clever or at least street smart to get to the top and stay there.

They are street smart for sure, but would any of them actually know how to build anything successful?

They know how to but would rather not expend the effort or cost. Why bother when the ICC dollar rolls in anyway. It’s very clear they’re not concerned by the results too much.
