Centuries for both Maunze and Marumani! The third of their careers for both of them
How come Marumani does so well in domestics and never at international level? It's a bit of a mystery unless we are saying that the standard of domestics is very low.
Well it’s the case for many others in our system too and hundreds of others in various countries around the world.

He’s very good but he’s still only 22.

International cricket is hard.

Domestic standard is low and he is probably a player that relies on having a good eye, meaning he can whack a 120 km bowler but not a 140 km bowler.

They exist everywhere.

So they snared one guy from that surprise test :lol:
It was just a warning shot, if they were serious they'd have tested everyone to see where we're at.

I’m assuming this is weed. How long does it last in the system? 3 months if I remember correctly right?

The harder stuff doesn’t last that long in the system and that’s how I think BT got away with it for a while. You could tell the way he was playing in his last year that he was on something. There was one blinder of a catch he took at slip in a Logan Cup game which I think even surprised him :lol:

Who knows what Kasuza tested for.
I'd assume weed. Ya 3 months.
I think coke is about 6 days.
That's on the recreational side, I don't know about the various steroids, I'd think there's a problem here with that as well.

No you couldn’t tell, lol BT did not take the field after snorting lines.
What you could see is his mind wasn’t fully in the game. He had off field distractions, but that isn’t ‘on something’, it’s more likely the impending fallout.
