I'd like to see him qualify for Zimbabwe. He's a quality batter and would be a welcomed addition to the side, especially as it begins to prepare for a test return

If Ricki is based in S.A. he will eventually play for Zim. It will be a choice of Test cricket for Zim, or no cricket at all for S.A.

I think it will be an added-plus for Zimbabwe if it happens the same way in terms of cricket news or even live cricket news.

it's a plus plus for us to get Ricki, next season we need to get a 90mph bowler, who could as well qualify for Zim, lol

Sean Tait would be handy :lol:
No but I think we should focus on our current crop of quick bowlers. Kyle Jarvis, Tendai Chitara and Shingrai Mazakadza have all got the potential to bowl in excess of 90 Clicks. Mpofu aswell is getting up to the 140 area now, so things are looking promising on the fast bowling front.
