    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    Third last squad to be announced, Limpopo... Not a lot of first division experience, except Sizwe Masondo, from waaay back. 4/11 local players and 4 rejects from Central Gauteng... Two more on my mystery high school sheet: Sizwe Masondo and Maphekgola Pootona (Bochum hub being an aggregate of...

    *Official* Zimbabwe T20 Tri-Series July 2025

    4/6 left arm bowlers vs 5/7 left hand batters... Holy Ned Flanders!

    Assume it's the same with sa and Linde. Bracewell and Ravindra deemed to be in the best 6 batters.

    *Official* Zimbabwe T20 Tri-Series July 2025

    Sa attack missing a pressure bowler like Baartman or eBosch. All attacking seamers is an odd flex. Ngidi is the closest to being able to squeeze an end.

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    More frustrating to see Van Vuuren and Van Dyk in div 2, as they are certainly talented enough to be in the mix as seamers...

    https://www.theherald.co.za/sport/cricket/2025-07-18-warriors-shake-up-their-squad-for-coming-season/ - show's which are rookie / HPC contracts... Full of typos, because Herald. Tons of seamers, but no Nortje. Seems likely he won't show up for SA much in the future then... Only 4/25 produced...

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    I am based in Helderberg (Strand, Somerset West. Gordon's Bay). It is puzzling to me that we're producing top men's rugby players and ladies cricket players, but I don't think we've had any men's cricketers in a long time. I know from those teenagers who play for our club the situation seems...

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    Vereeniging and Heidelberg fall under Central Gauteng still. So does Parys and Sasolberg. See their club leagues...

    South African Domestic Season 2025/26

    Goolam Bodi is Lenasia here. Other sources (ESPN) have Azaadville Secondary? They're quite far apart. Azaadville is between Krugersdorp and Roodepoort...

    I'm assuming Antum Naqvi is coming into the batting conversation soon?

    Even if you average 50, you still have failures. If a batsmen makes 125,75,0,0 in 4 innings that is an average of 50...

    Seems perfect against a 3 seamer line-up. Goal 1 is always see off the new ball and take it from there...

    Rainsford. Now there's a quality seamer that Zim wasted...

    Yes. I got them to fix the Irvin Modimokoane duplication, but there is so much more, and the reporting system is byzantine. e.g. Robin Peterson played for Border last year per them, but that was actually Russell Peterson. And the women's profiles are 10 times worse. I use livescore.com to get...

    I know ESPNCricinfo has some questionable labels, but Yusuf labeled an all-rounder in the XI seems absurd. Subrayen is already questionable (his provincial record is worse than Maharaj's, although he has a provincial hundred which Bosch has never achieved...) Subrayen described as "batting...

    Guess that explains the 9 year gap in his CV between Zim u-19 and senior FC debut...

    Dion Myers, who I didn't think was even in the squad, in for Bennett (technically Masvaure)... Still think he's the 1 young batter Zim have to just back to the hilt, unless they can convince Muyeye to return home, which sounds unlikely without regime change...

    2nd Test (Edgbaston) - July 2nd

    Pak vs Eng. Highest aggregate to produce a result. Match 1 came close.

    Natal had a history of playing their future openers as tail enders: https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/england-tour-of-south-africa-1999-00-61687/kwazulu-natal-vs-england-xi-78785/full-scorecard (see Pietersen at 9 and Bodi at 10) And apologies, he debuted at...

    2nd Test (Edgbaston) - July 2nd

    England could improve their bowling attack if they stop picking players on speed only instead of skill and accuracy...
