That is a different Zimbabwe A kit to last years too.

Just a swap of green for red. They look okay though, I would buy it.

Of course, putting my Ireland hat on I have to say the colours look ever so familiar:

Was wondering if they'd ever get around to covering it. I'm still amazed at how little publicity even the two boards gave to the tour. The results are scorecards were almost as ZCN/ZCF exclusive...

Ever since Martin Williamson's chat with Ozias Bvute, spookily enough. I'd love to know what was said off-the-record in that one, as the change in tone at CricInfo since that interview has been marked - "resurgent Zimbabweans", "flickers of hope", "much-improved performances"... who are they and what have they done with the real CricInfo?! :lol:

All that's a fair comment on what's happening on the ground, though. Things are looking up, finally...

i agree we around 25 players now who can be seen as an elite squad ( A team and national side together) which we need to build on

i think the real test will be in September and November when we play bangladesh home and away if we can beat them if both then we can finally say that we are heading back for the big time

I also herd that we may be playing in south Africa's domestic competitions next year can anyone confirm this?
