Matches Posted Zimbabwe Premier League 21 - Zimbabwe Academies League Finals

^ Ryan Harris & Lonwabo Tsotsobe have done a great job, opening the bowling for the rhinos. :) batting relies a lot on Amla.
 
Well, we finally won but only bowling has to be credited. Batsmen need to pull up their socks.
 
Important Message

Just letting all the managers of the league know, I had some computer problems. However thankfully I backed up everything two days ago, so thankfully all that was lost is statistics from the first five matches of Stanbic Bank 20 Series, all of round one and the two matches I simmed yesterday. So I won't be able to give you any statistics until after round three. All ratings of players are fine so matches will continued to be simmed today, so everything is back to normal. :)
