Ya I'm sure he does. I think the white boys have got an uphill struggle on their hands. Chairman of ZC, Frankenfurter, is now saying they have to prove themselves in the A tours in the upcoming FTP. That's a long road.

it’s curious this crazy little scheme. Uphill struggle = character building. By outcasting the murungus and making them work twice as hard, they’re unwittingly making them mentally tougher and far better players than a protege from takashinga parachuted straight in will ever be.

I don't think this fellow wields as much power as we think. Remember that he was advocating for K long and he didn't get picked even in the final 15

Pakistan have brought in another leggie for tomorrow. Going to be tough going for the batters, two wrist spinners and the pace of Rauf, not easy at all.

Frank has a point though, there are some garbage bowling attacks in our FC system at the moment. The Eagles and the Rocks bowling is very average at best, we are missing the Pakistani bowlers from last season big time.

Deffo bat first. Spins like it did Sunday 150 might be a winning score

We have to bat first to set a low total we can defend.
We ain't chasing a big one

Surely Faraz for Marumani?
Our greatest ever T20 player should pinch hit up front.
Mawoza approves.
