Boxing Day Test: SA v ZIM - Day 1 Review

SA won the toss and elected to bat looking to bat once and bat ZIM out of the game. Injuries kept Faf and Steyn out of the game as expected, while for ZIM Muzarabani played as coach Streak had indicated, with Burl an unexpected debut, but at least in the middle order(yet again continuing the selecti...

The cream always rises to the top!

With Zimbabwe being humiliated in a tour match by a mere invitational select, it's important to acknowledge how effective quotas have been in SA. 1. Lizaad Williams - a Provincial player and reserve Franchise pick - ran through Zimbabwe's best batsmen twice! 2. Likewise Bokako - bowler and tailender...

Re: Your XI for Boxing Day

Wahab Riaz is not a strike bowler. Even Amir is not a strike bowler anymore. Yasir Shah is, but most wrist spinners are. The biggest problem here is that guys.. 1. Are of the opinion that I don't know cricket 2. Falsely tell themselves it's a troll/trolling 3. Have never even imagined the prospect ...

Re: Your XI for Boxing Day

Chatara has a career Test bowling econ of 2.5...I can't think of any bowler apart from Jadeja who has a lower econ rate. Jarvis is expensive and Cremer tends to be as well (most wrist spinners are). If Chatara is fit and has the ability to bowl 15-20 overs in a day, he is the first bowler on the te...

Re: Zimbabwe Under 19s in New Zealand 2017

Pariah you know zip about what constitutes a good player. Stats only tell half the story. Taun was a tiny chap, with a big heart, he’s always bowled immaculate line and length and flight from a young age. When he was here he probably wasn’t the best offie in his age group, but having played in a mo...

Re: Mohammad Eqlakh

hhm, do you not realise just how bitter India-Pakistan relations are? Your comment would make sense strictly if you were implying that Faisal sabotaged Eqlakh. :? I think I've I've demonstrated my understanding of Indo-Pakistani relations via the ZC-Pakistani-BCCI subplot haven't I? The ICC will on...

Re: Zimbabwe Bowling Talent Stocks

Pariah has gone from being anti-white to being anti-Zimbabwe. Any neutral not affected by the mob psychology would be quick to argue that I'm actually more patriotic than Zimbabweans themselves I wonder if there’s a similar South African forum that he enlightens Plenty. Mr Googly looking forward to...
