[Stoneman Returns]

Doesn't want to see Mpofu, Mutumbami, Mutombodzi, Chakabva in international cricket.....they are below standard as per international cricket is concerned.

This Tour should end Chawaguta's reign as selector, followed by Zyl and Utseya, group has been a serious disappointment since begining of their term.

Tony Munyonga appointed for carrying drinks could play better then some of the failures who get picked due to politics.

What a shit start. We'd better pull this back otherwise it's going to be a slaughter.
Mpofu bowling decent wheels here! 85/86mph.

[sloandog]

Jarvis needs to sort this out now. The wicket looks absolutely fantastic in fairness and the ball is really skidding on.
Hopefully our batters can turn up today and make an impact

[Googly]

Anyone got a link?

I once said Chris Mpofu is a very fast bowler, and even shared Cricinfo commentary with his speeds. Someone said it was a typo.

You can imagine just how fast Mpofu was before when he was much younger.

Njabulo Ncube was fast too (as was Ian Nicolson).

Tuskers dominated largely because opposition batsmen could not relax after Meth and the chucker got off from their opening spells, with Mpofu and Ncube hurrying them. Then there was Shingi and Chatara at the Goats. The Rocks were worse because Panyangara and Mupariwa were like Meth and the chucker on steroids(later Vitori & Musoko joined Panyangara). Panyangara and Mupariwa once bowled out targuably the strongestever Logan Cup batting order for just 26!!! Rainsford and Muzhangwe were not to bad either in Midlands.

I recall saying most County and Shield batsmen would battle in the Logan Cup, and most of the imports like Horton and Moeen Ali often did.

Why do some shirts have Zimbabwe and the sponsor on it but some don't?

[kngow]

What the hell was that throw?! Argh we could've had Mushy there.

[kngow]

Yessss nicely done by Mutumbodzi he's changed up the speeds quite nicely.

[kngow]

3 full tosses in a row for Jarvis, going for the Yorker. Lucky they weren't smashed.

Edit: 4 now
