newzimbabwe.com forums are terrible. I used to be on there trying to discuss cricket before this forum existed. Every topic thread would descend into racism accusations and how cricket is used as a tool of oppression by the white man. At least here every topic thread only descends into people naming their prefered side 1 through 11.

1. Sibanda
2. Marillier
3. Taylor (c, wk)
4. Ballance
5. Waller
6. Benade
7. Cremer
8. Madziva
9. Nicolson
10. Rainsford
11. Chinouya

Haven't they done enough to appease the ICC, and the rest of the world with an 'unexpected selection' for the national team! Vusi should be captain! Why must they take it away from him, he's done a great job for them so far? It's bad enough he wasn't made national captain because they assumed he wouldn't be a regular across formats! What's happening? It's not like Taylor will have the freedom to exercise the captaincy education he gains there in the national team!

Let us know how that works out. You will be the most sane person there probably.

Definitely and you have some C10s there as well... In a way it actually shows an undercurrant of ethnic hatred between the Shona and Ndebele, though I think newzim magnifies it to astronomical levels.

You won't last a few hours there. With your snide remarks about who' had the cutest face in all of the Zimbabwe national team and such like you'll be swiftly condemned (by Jukwa) you as a "Pale White Devil, who doesn't know the difference between a man's buttock and the hips of a woman".

But don't worry most of the hate Bob :D

I'll say things like
" I think rhodesians everywhere whether white black or shauna are all equal".

That will enrage them.

See what I did there? I find that kind of thing funny. Others won't. Probably with good reason but if ur watching and know I'm saying it to stir the pot the reactions become hilarious.

Thing is with the cuties like Jarvis there's a serious undertone there because he can be used as a posterboy and a marketing tool to pull more birds to the game.
Which can only be a good thing, traditionally girls don't like cricket much.
