Saw him at Lord's on Wednesday and he looked a bit dodgy. Don't know what the standard of the Zim cricket is like, but 65 is a decent score in your first game back.

What do you mean dodgy? Was he looking shifty and carrying a briefcase? Let's hope he doesn't do a Chris Lewis on us...

No, he looked very average at batting. Worse than the county player that we were netting with.

I don't play for a club due to work commitments, just play the odd charity game.
