A shortened day, only 55 overs thankfully, meant the Afghans struggled to reach a poor 484-8d at the close

I really fail to see why Mutombodzi is in the side let alone captaining it, he doesn't bowl any more and averages 22 in 1st Class, 19 in List A and 10 in 20 over stuff, 2 hundreds and 9 fifties from 158 innings, Jesus, this is captaincy material ?, Maruma is only marginally better, Chari gets a score once in a blue moon by means of if you get picked often enough you must get runs at least once in every 20 games while Nyumbu is the same with the ball

This selection policy has now produced a side that even Afghanistan A are taking apart with ease, God help us when Zim get to bat in the morning

That'll be me Sloandog. I'm an import from Rugby to open the bowling and batting :lol:

It was a pleasure to meet you Dr Singh. I guess today we'll find out if the track is flat for both teams ......
Will see you in the one dayers.

Hey mate do you have updates on how Tendai's recovery is coming along? I know you said you weren't involved but you're probably closer to the team than anyone here ......
