Opening post

Northerns Vs Southerns at OH, today, tomorrow and Thursday.

Hopefully we see all the big names playing and no weird selections, but I haven't had a squad list sent yet. Raza & Blessing still busy elsewhere.

Presumably this series will determine who ends up in the first team playing SA 'A', and who ends up in our 'A' team going to Nepal.

Good News that players are getting more domestic T20s before the qualifiers

Looking forward to the extra cricket.

I hope the outcome of this series is based on your last couple of sentences but you never know with Zimbabwe 😂 3 ducks for Chamu, let’s make him captain 😂

Interesting to see Bright Phiri playing.

He did show some good signs during the t20s so I understand the call up. He is knocking Larry about a bit anyway

Nyauchi with the first wicket :D

Doesn't look like Ervine, Williams or Burl can be bothered with it again.

Mutombodzi, Masuku and Maruma all playing despite not playing in the franchise t20 stuff. Quite funny.

Nice innings from Madande again. It’s his birthday today as well

I thought some of the people watching the live stream today might have included our glorious leader, but alas he is busy on a TV programme in India today

Not sure that is a fair comment on Ervine as he has played as much domestic cricket as anyone over the last few years. Burl is injured I think.

Williams "unwell" apparently but calling BS on that one.

Think Ngarvara has a niggle.

From watching today it is clear that Evans and Munyonga are going to get some game time with the "A" side.

It is painful watching Mavuta these days. bowls 3/4 pies an over.

Burl got married last week so maybe they've given him time off, fair enough.

Maybe Ervine and Williams have covid again 😂 Haven't they had it about three times each already? It's convenient!

Chakabva has disappeared too. The usual people who usually know aren't being forthcoming either about where these guys are or what their injuries are. Nobody seems to know, or at least are not saying. Ervine hasn't been seen for two months, and Reggie and Williams almost three months. If they are injuries for that long then thats pretty serious for guys of their age.

He looked 'well' enough attending a drug abuse conference with BT a few days ago;

Williams does definitely have health issues at the moment.

If BT is in the same frame as Hammy then he's hardly persona non grata.

Hammy did say on radio shortly after all the BT stuff came out that he's his mate and we shouldn't forget everything he did on the cricket field. Very different tone to the board and TM/GM.

Good to see flat pitches produced for once. If only ZC took T20 seriously 😂
