Lots of people work at a place where their boss is a prick or management treats them like slaves. How many walk away if they are not sure their next gig will be better ? These are real life problems. Sometimes you have to suck it in and get on with it. You think BT wants to be there after everything? They don’t even want him there too.
I don't agree with his. A lot of people will speak up if their boss is a prick or take the matter to the union or HR. Then again, that only happens in countries that actually function properly, but Zim is a shit show and every time the players tried to form a union or address issues, one of their very own fought against them.

There is no guarantee that the next job is going to be better, but staying where you are isn't going to make things better, so you seek new options and new solutions.

It's very unfair to tell people to suck it in when they get treated like crap. The way the people get treated needs to change. If your boss kept telling everyone else that you were a terrible persona and kept giving you crap jobs, then when you spoke to him about it he began to make your life even worse and kept carrying on like a twat, would you just accept it?

Absolutely needs to be given more chances in the Zim side.
I mean Jesus, from the Mzansi Super League to NPL

So takashinga won the NPL2020, no real surprise they pretty much had a Logan cup side.

Hard to say whether it was a massive success or not, the scores were mostly low, played on slow poor pitches where the spinners dominated. Things will never change as long as the pitches are prepared in such a way.

At least it was completed on time which for ZC is a success

Zimdoggy is 100% correct about the Nick Welch situation, his focus is on country cricket at the moment and trying to see what doors will open up England wise. I am sure he was trying to avoid any conflict when speaking to John.

In regards to Murray, family members have told me quite clearly that he will not be playing for Zimbabwe/Domestically until things change in terms of the administration/organisation on the ground.

However I think it is great that Nick Welch is back in Zimbabwe playing cricket, will benefit everyone involved.
Nick seemed very sincere and enthusiastic when he spoke to me, concentrating primarily on country cricket for the next two years, and then keen to play for Zimbabwe. He did say a things could change in that time, but at the moment I believe that's the way he's thinking.

Jesus, Travis Friend on a scorecard, that’s a blast from the past.
Callum Price still knocking about as well and Gayle.
Really shame these guys can’t get integrated into a FC side

I have a mate who was dropped from one of the sides, says its suddenly gone from being friendly to very competitive.
He was being heckled for being an old bullet as well. :lol:

Boozer's league has been quiet for a while and this is great to see. I'll go and watch the next one.
