Zim 5 to Watch: Season 2010-11

[andybligz]

im just excited that our fast bowling stocks have increased..a year and a half ago we had three 80mph bowlers but with e emergence and return of a few guys the pressure has increased on everyone and you can tell by how most of our bowlers can now bowl 140kph..the bowler to watch this season is donald tiripano.. he is the quickest of the mountaineers crop of bowlers, yes the quickest and he recently did well in the logan cup..of course then there is chitara, masakadza, panyangara to look out for also..

Cricinfo have Tiripano as Right arm medium pace.

Panyangara, Masakadza and Chatara as Right arm fast-medium

Musoso and Mujaji are listed as Right arm Fast

From what you are saying this is incorrect but how do these 6 compare?

this is the same website that lists rainsford as fast-medium even though he struggles to touch 130..this is the same website that puts rainsford, siddle, bollinger and hilfenhaus(the latter 3 can hit 150 easily) in the same pace bracket. from what i have seen aliseni, jarvis, nicholson, chimhamiwa, tiripano, muzarabani, chitara,ncube, mpofu/masakadza are the quickest we have and in that order..not the musosos or the mujajis as cricinfo states..

im sorry mate but hilfenhaus cant bowl 150 neither can bollinger, on the other hand siddle can bowl 150 on his day on a good deck. hilfenhaus bowls just under 140 and bollinger the same

The fact that the man may have got a few figures wrong does not take away the substance of what he's saying, namely that cricinfo's opinions are sometimes arbitrary they don't take time enough to find out the correct thing on a few important issues. Remember the time when they had one Steve Price to write out their articles for them, the man was ill informed and unreliableand not balanced.

The only real thing that they are extremely good for is their extensive database. For in depth analysis and correct opinion you have to sift through the various writers
