ZCF Hall of Famer

Opening post


Campbell Johnathan, Evans Bradley, Gwandu Trevor, Jongwe Luke, Kaia Innocent, Kaia Roy, Madande Clive, Marumani Tadiwanashe, Masara John, Maunze Kudzai, Mavuta Brandon, Munyonga Tony, Mutombodzi Tinotenda, Nyauchi Victor, Tsiga Tafadzwa

Weak squad but also a big chance for Evans, Campbell Jr, Marumani and Jongwe to stand out from the pack. Madande too. Could be a direct ticket to the senior team.

In a way I am more excited about this tour. This is a much more exciting squad than the Board XI and they will play in front of packed houses in Nepal.

I am interested to see how Tony Munyonga goes, grounds are very small in Nepal and he is a big hitter.
ZCF Hall of Famer
How much has Trevor Gwandu paid for his place? :shock:

Rest of the squad is fine, apart from maybe Kaia.

Probably still get beaten though if Nepal put out their strongest team. Not sure if they will though.

I agree. This will be a real test. A proper "A" team experience with the pressure of big crowds.

I'm backing Marumani to also do some damage.

Nyauchi in the A squad, what an absolute joke!!! Not happy at all :evil:

My 11 from this squad:

Marumani

I kaia

Maunze

Munyonga (spare bowler)

R kaia

Madande (wk)

Evans (2)

Mavuta (5)

Jongwe (3)

Masara (4)

Nyauchi (1)

12th man

Mutombodzi

Tsiga

Gwandu

Campbell

Nyauchi will tear through Nepal so can see us winning this series, this squad looks almost as strong as the main team that’s playing SA. Still can’t believe Nyauchi is not in the main team, such a joke.

I'm happy with Brad Evans selection, hope he finds a way to get into the main team that plays the qualifier in July. It is a big opportunity for Evans.

Rest of the squad is ok. Would have liked to see some more younger players though, especially from the U19s. Matt Welch could have been in there.

Nyauchi/Evns/Jongwe is a great bowling line-up for an 'A' team, but that batting lineup is very very very poor. Quite feasible we'll struggle to get past 100 if Nepal play their full team - Lamichhane et al

Let's calm down, we will wait and see what happens in the next 4 -5 months. I understand this is difficult to take, but we have taken the WCQ defeat against the UAE and this is absolutely nothing compared to that.

There is no denying that ZC sucks, and as a cricket team Zimbabwe have had a free fall, but it is what it is, we've been hoping for things to improve in the worst of times, and this at present is atleast not all that gloomy. They are playing games, that for a start is more important.

Monday, Zimbabwe need to come all guns blazing and close out this ODI series by winning it.

Nepal wins the toss and field first in the series decider.
ZCF Hall of Famer
Zimbabwe have indeed come all guns blazing, probably yesterday's win has given some confidence to these players also. Flying start.

Poor captaincy and overall leadership here. Sad to watch.
ZCF Hall of Famer
Haha f**k off. Just got a clear direct hit runout, but conveniently the video replay technology 'broke at that exact moment' so they've given it not out. What a joke 😂

Fielding has been disgusting for the rest of innings. Finally produce a moment of brilliance and this happens. That's very f***ing Zimbabwean isnt it
Legend
Suddenly the angle the third umpire needs for a runout can't be found 😂

What? 😂 thankfully I'm not watching. That's pathetic.
ZCF Hall of Famer
haha, Mavuta just got this Kushal guy out and gave him a proper send off, 'Yeeessss.....f**k off!!'. 😂
ZCF Hall of Famer
Marumani somehow looking like a better keeper than Madande did 😂
ZCF Hall of Famer
Zimbabwe were atleast 25 runs short after the start they got.
