Another thread on logan cup squads did include a certain Ahmad Eqlakh Mustaq - in the mountaineers squad. Probably the same bloke. Probably the spelling is wrong in both cases. No trace of the dude out there on the interweb that I can find.
Peterhouse U14C 4th change bowler and no. 10 batsman (but only because Aaron didn't have a bat).

Who ever he is he’s doing well 67*

Mutizwa fails in both innings here against a pretty average attack, albeit batting higher up the order.

Mutizwa not doing himself any favours. He really needs to be more consistent but than again are any of our batsman consistent at all.

He's been relatively consistent, just seems to have pissed somebody off up top

There is some Mohd Eqlakh in the Vidarbha association site (the same VCA where our U19 toured recently) news item from last year: http://vca.co.in/late-dr-m-n-dorairajan ... to-372016/. Has scores of 62 and 2/11 (leg spin).

According to Cricinfo now, he is 21 and from UP, India. Scores 67 today. I'd say get him to qualify for Zim, opener problem could be solved in the long run :)

Kind of Jeet Raval scenario of NZ.

By the way, what are people's thoughts on Clive Chitumba? The guy hasn't put a foot wrong so far in the opportunities he has got in the star studded Mountaineers line up.

Ervine needs to score 250 if they’re going to win this

This game is getting interesting. The Tuskers probably can't win, but can certainly salvage a draw if they bat well.

And it's over. Roy Kaia and debutant legspinner John Masara got the job done.

Good to see Chatara back in amongst the wickets. Shingi is hardly bowling these days. Does he have an injury or he has all but given up on selection.
