The Alistair Campbell HP Academy. They were advertising for players and I’m guessing it’s expensive because they’re offering extra-curricular stuff, but now they’re advertising a trial date? Today I think?

If they’ve been short on customers maybe they’ve changed tack and now doing something under the umbrella of ZC?

I don’t think we will be seeing him any time soon 😂

We don’t seem to have inter-provincial age group tournaments anymore. ZC occasionally get about 400 kids together for a photo-shoot and that’s it. 😂

The reality is that we don’t have enough good players to have a tournament for each age group, but we could certainly combine a couple of age groups.

We slip further behind every hour, it’s that bad.

At school first team level we’re not even half way through our third term, which is the main cricket season, we’ve had two T20 festivals, played about four 50 over games and the season is over. That’s it, done and dusted.

How does one develop a cricketer in this environment? It’s completely impossible. From what I’ve seen a Zim u18 side would not beat a good school team in SA.

JAYDEN Goodwin, the son of former Zimbabwe national cricket team



Throws some light on why his dad didn't want to be a part of that team any more.

:o 😂

I want to see you as part of the Zim setup or in charge.
