No Taylor, Cremer, PJ or Waller for the Rhinos. Masakadza and Chatara playing for the Mountaineers.

Chibhabha captains the Eagles and Elton giving it another go. Good to see Mawoyo back for the Mountaineers. But no room for Vusi.
stars have gone out crazy hard!

Well this is very interesting. Clearly something is going on with that "band of brothers" ..Well Burl is there for the stars at least 😂

Will be interesting to see who plays for the tuskers but having 7 or 8 players revolt and everybody else plays wont remove these guys. We have seen this before

Its a shame there are even any games taking place at all. The people who suffer the most are the ones who are actually playing. Tough world

Back to the games. The rising stars are on a mission to impress

Masukanda going out cheaply. This kid can onto the seen with so much promise. Has been given the chances too. He really needs to sort himself out.

It certainly looks a bit fishy, surely all four of them can't be injured/given a break at the same time.

Patrick Mambo for the Stars hasn't played since 2014! :shock:

Some great hitting from Kamunhukamwe. We should be playing more Twenty20 matches to unearth who the real power hitters are in the country. Its nice to have domestic cricket back on the scene. At the end of the day this is the yard stick for the survival of the game in the country.

Yet another half century from Masakadza. He can score runs after all? Wonder were disappeared to during the qualifiers. Burl just cant find second gear 7 from 33.
Veteran
Elton and his mercenaries are set to be the next national team- sell outs for a bit of shrapnel.

Tino Mawoyo.....is that correct he's playing?? i don't think he can get a 5 on the beep test. The lads been eating for preseason warm up.

Masakadza has always feasted on weak attacks. In the Qualifiers he came up against good bowling attacks and was easily sorted out barring that one knock vs Hong Kong or whoever. There was also the pressure of almost every game being a do or die match.

He was always my first name (after Vusi and Elton) to be dropped, but with the way the Musakandas, Burls, and PJs (done very well in Tests, mind you) have batted, I've realized Masakadza is still one of the best 7 batters in the country.

That's the sad part of Zim cricket. Its always the same guys out performing the rest. But for some reason the just don't turn up when they are really needed. PJ has had plenty of chances but an average of less than 20 in the limited stuff really doesn't set him above the rest. A mere coin toss would do to see who plays between him and Zhuwao.

Cursed him.

15.1 : Mambo to Chigumbura, SIX runs,


Yes... No... Yes.... No.... Well Elton can still hit a cricket ball. Does he have anything left in the tank?

The rising stars cant catch a break. They remind of the national team 10 years back. One day the batting is good the next day the bowling is good. Could never get both right at the same time.

Good to see some eagles regulars getting past 50. Etlon especially. I thought he had given up. What a time to pitch up

The rhinos stood no chance without their "band of brothers"

Well looks like Burl is the only whitey around?

The other guys scared away by the racist comments from the Doc.

In other news Mangongo hits the paper for suing ZC for unfair dismissal- well done Stephen! :W: You just got much respect .


Jarvis is injured.

Mangongo is one of a kind. He is honestly the biggest victim in all of this I think along with the analysts and the physios and Lamb and Prosper. This is just trying to make them accept lower salaries I think. Hence the you can reapply option
Veteran
TapsC it is just pure bullying. it's not strategic or clever it's just bullying people into submission because there are no other jobs out there.

The analyst is probably on 1500, physio around 3000, lamb and prosper 3000, trainer 2500

For national roles not a lot at all!

As i said sack someone and say they can reapply means unfair dismissal.

Force someone to resign then reapply is just being a c%nt!
