Not world class Hhm, just Test class.

Re: [Match Thread] OnIy Test: SL vs ZIM
Cremer moves past Paul Strang's 166 international wickets.
Re: [Match Thread] OnIy Test: SL vs ZIM
Too many long hops, short deliveries and allround loose bowling but two of his best balls have got him wickets.
3/73 after 23 overs does look impressive, especially when you consider that it's made sure Sri Lanka are no longer in control of the match.
For me it's a case of people who wanted Chakabva out so Musakanda could open with Hami and Moor keeps should really be thanking Regis for putting his hand up here.
Cremer has lost a few wickets before with Moor behind the stumps. Regis has been Tatenda Taibu today. Who would argue if I said Regis Chakabva is the best keeper in international cricket right now?
Re: [Match Thread] OnIy Test: SL vs ZIM
And Masakadza takes a stunning catch! Mathews gone!
Re: [Match Thread] OnIy Test: SL vs ZIM
Hami can still move it
Re: [Match Thread] OnIy Test: SL vs ZIM
Sri Lanka capitulating here? Worrying signs. Matthews and Dickwella. Wow!

Wowww....Amazing...
Re: [Match Thread] OnIy Test: SL vs ZIM
After New Zealand's visit, he should never have played another Test. Surely even you should admit that too.
He was well and truly on notice, and little credit to him because to an extent he grabbed the opportunity with both hands - batting and bowling, when Sri Lanka visited. So it's good he's started off ok against them in this one-off Test.
My worry is all throughout 2015 and 2016 Sri Lankan cricket was under pressure from international cricekt due to the match-fixing. ICC used the South African domestic situation as well as a few bad apples in India to deflect from that. So the fixing problems that were swept under the carpet in Sri Lanka are threatening to ruin what coul dpossibly be one of the most cracking Test matches of the year so far.
Anyway I'd be happy for Cremer to get a fifer, and Zimbabwe to take this(I'd make a little fortune out of it too ), but there's not one batsman out the of club or international standard who will watchh Cremer and lose even the slightest sleep.

Not too say Regis isn't a good keeper but one swallow does not a summer make.
