We criticise the hell out of most Zim players, we rightfully criticise our ZC board, politicians etc ALL THE TIME. Yet when we turn our critique to age-cheating..during a youth World Cup, it’s “whoa whoa whoa, that’s radical”. Y’all need to learn the difference between criticisms and insults

Yeah, don’t call out matchfixing and the mere coincidence that it’s rich Indian cartels at the centre of it. Don’t complain about blatant age cheating. Don’t criticise a well-paid absentee India-based Zimbabwe coach because it casts aspersion on 1.3 billion Indians Let’s all pretend everything is okay. Let’s bury our heads in the sand and get along to get along. There’s time for nuance and time for blunt honesty. Y’all are failing to point where are the lies? If these opinions are based on lies, tell us
I dont think Rajput or any famed current Indian coach will be tied in with the fixing purely because of how much heat it would land that person with the BCCI. I get where you`re coming from but its highly unlikely . In fact it would probably more likely that a coach from a poorer country is tied in with the syndicates. Agree that Rajput should be kicked out though. Where is HOughton in all this?

Why stop at under 19s.
Lets just put the 25 year olds in the under 13 comp.

Why would you send them? We want SOME hope of making the top 8.

We are a country of 1.3+ billion people, and that doesn't mean that everyone here get up every day and start wondering which match to fix next and which international cricketer to snap up for such activities. Surely, there are better ways of expressing this?
The ZCF forum has become increasingly radicalized from an ideological standpoint in recent years. Anything foreign will be attacked in an off-hand casual way and if called out will either be brushed off as light-hearted jokes or a simply doubling down. 1.3 billion people is just a level of nuance for such folks.
Yes. Sadly. With no end in sight.
