Call me racist or whatever ...

"The white players in the side are better than the black players in it, therefore the white players out of the side are also better than the black players in it" is a dire, collectivist and borderline racist argument.

There's no doubt there are institutional problems at lower levels of Zimbabwean cricket and Zimbabwean society in general that work against white people. There is also no doubt from anyone who actually follows Zimbabwean cricket that the national selectors haven't taken part in racially motivated selection here though. Have a spell.

What could have been for Zimbabwe had there not been all this persecution of the whites.

Probably a solution would be to play 6 blaacks and 5 whiites in Zimbabwe team, so that competitiveness is maintained.

They should put Duncan Fletcher in charge, he's white, and the grumpiest ****er imaginable - can't believe he'd have any truck with quotas - he even selected a Welshman to play for England

Tbh I found Jarvis to be a depressing, grim and dispiriting signing - hope he can pick up the threads of his career back home - he's clearly got something, but clearly nothing that flourishes amongst t' dark satanic mills
