I dont think anyone is arguing with you.
Most are agreeing that exposure elsewhere to a better bowling attack makes a huge difference, but as you say definitely doesn't guarantee you success at international level, but is likely to get you runs at domestic level at some point to get you noticed.
That's why I keep repeating that it is essential for someone with skills to identify the guys someone can work with because our domestic doesn't come close to being a stepping stone to international cricket. The guys they've picked so far have come up short.

Naqvi has had a very mediocre first half of the season. Curran had an ordinary time of it prior to this year. Welch made fokoro last season. Byrom hasn't set it alight when he's been here, neither has Schadendorf. These good guys are not guaranteed runs. Both Welch's are better white ball players than Curran yet Curran has made more 50 over runs so far this season. The fact someone can't see that is astonishing.
All credit to BC, he's looking organised and whatever thought processes he's got going are working.

Naqvi is 3rd on the FC run scoring charts, with 344 at an average of 49. That isn't "very mediocre", is it? Down a little on the last couple of years, but in no way poor. Far better than the likes of Campbell and Kaitano, who are in the test squad at the moment.

Why you obsessed by Naqvi? He is not Zimbabwean simple and can only play for Zimbabwe in 2032 when he becomes eligible.

He’s so overrated and our scene is so weak.

Stick a bell in the ball and Dean du plessis would be making 300’s feasting on the likes of Sydney Murombo.

Even Wez can make runs in the Logan cup, that’s how easy it is.

He wouldn’t make the grade for Cheltenham civil service 1st XI though strong side so I’m told.

I dunno why you remain convinced of that? He'll get it sorted out this year i reckon. You can get an investment citizenship and like all things you can get a passport at someone's discretion. You're talking like you know something..

They think a white guy blocked them but they need to think about the unlikelihood of that. Its zero chance, theyre being lied to if they think otherwise. At the end of the day no white guy has close to that kind of influence. If they've got the investment money the passport is there for them or if they have the right guy knocking on the door. ZC want him.

If he's going to make a difference we need him. I'm not sure he's a great fit though.

It's not so muxh the countrys visa system, but the ICCs policy.
