Re: Zimbabweans in the UK 2025

I see there are some Zimbabweans playing in UK.

Maybe it's a dumb question, but I honestly have no idea.

Are UK club paying for each Zimbabwean:
- travel & accomodation ? (I assume yes)
- a season fee? April to September?
- what, more or less, an ordinary club player from overseas earns in UK?

Re: Brendan Taylor Interview

A very good news for Zimbabwe Cricket the return of Brendan Taylor.
He would definetely still have a few years as player. Coaching can wait.

As a christian I also found inspirational his witness. Brendan Taylor is a man to be admired.

Re: Zimbabwe v Ireland | 2nd T20 | Harare | 23 Feb 25

Well batted to young Tony Munyonga. I rate this boy a lot. I'd love to see him further up the order though. He has more shots than Murumani and Wez is just not a T20 cricketer, at all Very glad for todays performance. Munyonga is showing better and better performances. I'm sorry for the inconsisten...

Re: Zimbabwe Vs Ireland | 3rd ODI | 18 Feb 2025

A fantastic day!

Amazed to see how easy it's been this win with a chase completed in less than 40 overs.

There shouldn't be any doubt which is to be the batting opening partnership from now on.

Re: Match Thread: Only Test Zimbabwe v Ireland (6th -10th February 2025)

Abject. Losing a Test at home to Ireland is an absolute nadir. But it’s okay because we can make some convenient excuses about our elderly 40 year olds not being available (again). How convenient! How much longer must we persist with a head coach who by all accounts is so totally out of his depth? ...

Re: Match Thread: Only Test Zimbabwe v Ireland (6th -10th February 2025)

Zimbabwe sink further at international level. They are now properly behind Ireland and Afghanistan as a test nation. That is a real shame. So many times it's been dscussed about a nightmare day without Ervine-Raza-Williams. Everyone convinced of a brakeless collapse. This test has been the time wit...

Re: Match Thread: Only Test Zimbabwe v Ireland (6th -10th February 2025)

Each time I hear about these quotas I truly feel bad: I rule you out because you are white, I rule you in because you are black. This is racism! This is the african application of that damned woke ideology. On the other hand I feel well because (if I'm not wrong) this is the first time Zimbabwe pla...
