Theres been lotss of talk about him on the past two Logan Cup threads.
He's a Belgian-born Australian who's Dad is paying for him and his brother (Awad, at Tuskers) to play a couple of First Class games so that they can qualify for a sportspersons visa for the UK summer.
Looks a genuinely decent player but he isn't even 1% Zimbabwean and he'll be off soon.
Well my previous comments were not allowed by the site administrator. You seem to have been bashing certain players with no evidence at all. I am a player with in the Rhinos and I can tell you that Antum is being paid to play and not the other way around. He was suggested to Rhinos by a certain Zimbabwean international player.
He doesn't need these games to get a UK visa as he has a European passport with UK resident card. He also holds an Australian passport.
He was a reserve player for Jamaica Tallawas and he was also part of Lahore Qalandars in PSL. Highly regarded by power hitting coach Julian Wood and Mickey Arthur.
His brother only came to watch however Tuskers approached him as they needed a top order batsman. He is regarded as one of the best opening batsman for his age in Australia having made his debut in Premiere grade at the age of 17. He is being paid as well.
Premiere Grade cricket in Australia is far better and stronger then First class in Zimbabwe and better then county cricket division 2 in UK.
Hope the administrator will have no issues posting this as be is allowing you guys to post all the nonsense and hatred you have tried creating.
Awesome post and great to have some insight into this bizarre situation.
Who was the English pro who did this like ten years ago? Can't remember. I also think Burl may have been here at one point when much younger.
You look a very decent player tbf Antum. I wish you only success. Your performances have genuinely justified you taking away a spot in the team from Byrom or any of the young Rhinos kids who turn up to nets every week for years on end and never get a look in.
So you're a Rhinos player posting on behalf of Naqvi?
Sweet lord that's lame.
The franchise players barely get paid so believe me you'll grow a fucking beard waiting for your supposed pay check
No such thing as a UK resident card either.
Just play your few games and fekk off, nobody likes you.
Everyone is sick of people corrupting an already corrupt system with a few dollars. You could have negotiated a whole season at Tuskers for a grand for 5 of you.
For the 25k Dad spent you probably could have arranged Zim passports for the whole family and you'd have been batting at 5 against West Indies next week. Somebody saw you coming
Trying to become a pro cricketer and craving affirmation at the same time are poor bed fellows. You need to grow a Rhino hide if you're going to survive.
Not in this lifetime will you be as good a batsman as Byrom, by the way.
Secretzimbo seems like you lost your place to a good recruit by Rhinos.
The only deserving players in your list are the white fellows.
No facts only rumors. Keep going with your agenda as both Antum and his brother are top players who will take the white fellows reserved spots. The only players who are actually paying are the white fellows in the team whose dad's have reserved their spots unfortunately.
You have been here 5 min and have learnt the race thing
If you were all top players why are you here in the Zim backwater? You should all be in the Australian side.
Glance 5cm above your question on the previous page and all will be revealed.
Normal folk read a few of the previous comments on a thread to get the gist of the conversation in order to make a sensible contribution.
I thought admin didn't allow people to run two accounts?

Liam Dawson.
Think he might have singled me out.
This guy is Naqvi.
