I am one of the daring few, who follow Zimbabwean cricket. They are now officially a lost cause. Give it 5 more years cricket will die down their very soon.

Currently Canada are 41/0 10th over

Good start,expected better from Chatara,
Zimbabwe 1 bowler short,means a lot of part time spin.

This is a Zim ODI team (under the A team disguise) at home against Canada.

They should be able to win though. However, it is not going to be a convincing win from the looks of it.

Canada 248/6.
Zim currently 113/3.
+++
I can't complain much because we lost to Canada in a WC game.

Go Canada (expatriots of India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, West Indies, ets.)

Many of these Canadian guys I know them personally...Junaid Siddiqui went to University with me @ Brock.....he was our Captain...very nice and humble guy.....I was mainly umpiring and coordinating tournaments with other Unis

When I was umpiring in Brampton-Etobicke Cricket League...i have seen Rizwan Cheema, Cecil Parvez, Saad bin Zafar playing...there are lots of talents no doubt...but everyone plays these as part timer....there are many players who are actually born in Canada and learnt cricket here.

What's the score?
Canada win yetm

Mridul · #11 May 16, 2017, 09:57 AM

Zim won by 2 wickets.

Well played Canada. Hopefully they can continue their batting forms and win few matches. I hope they can qualify to play in Division 2.

I am wondering what happened to the Captain, Nitish Kumar?

brockley · #12 May 16, 2017, 05:51 PM

He was named in the squad for the tour,has been playing University cricket in England,I gather to qualify for england.

Zimbabwe A wins the 2nd match convincingly by 78 runs. Sean Williams with a century, Cremer with 4 wickets.

MHRAM · #14 May 18, 2017, 12:34 PM

Bet even Bangladesh would struggle against hapless Canada

aklemalp · #15 May 18, 2017, 01:14 PM

Ireland has a chance of going past Zimbabwe in the ODI rankings if they beat Bangladesh tomorrow.

That's huge.
