Tinashe Chiorah had a blinder. He actually set up that win for Mountaineers. Looking forward to seeing how he goes this season. He was picked off the back of a good NPL. Mangongo is about the only guy who's prepared to take a punt on a newbie
I like mangongo. Values players who work hard and treats everyone with the same level of distain if they mess about 😅
Mangongo is smart, wants to be head coach of the national side again, therefore selects the guys who can get him there.

Laughable that selecting the best players is a smart strategy, only in Zimbabwe :lol:
Hadn't looked at it from that perspective but I think you are right. A lot of the guys in his team will eventually be the core of the national team. It's just a time game. Long term strategy

This is all a blessing in disguise. They have about 2 months to dominate the domestic scene whilst the national team gets slaughtered. That's all they should focus on. These 2 tours are going to be brutal

After the high scoring list A match on Saturday this Logan Cup match should be mouth watering between Mountaineers and Rocks. The batters really had a go. Mashinge caught my eye. He bowled really well but he is a bit over weight has to work on his fitness.

I'm looking at these playing elevens today and it doesn't look weak and looks strong. Wonderful what competition can do.
Welch bros and Campbell bros Square off also.
