Zimbabwe's Pro 50 Tournament Update

 Two rounds of the Pro50 championship have been played in Zimbabwe with 4 of the 5 teams playing twice – whilst Mountaineers (weirdly) have not played at all.

 

Matabeleland have hit the ground running with two wins from two games with Southern Rocks in second courtesy of one massive win against the Mid West Rhinos where they chased down 276 with 27 balls remaining and 4 wickets in hand. The Southern Rocks also boast the tournament’s highest run scorer at this early stage.  Cephas Zhuwao has been the tournament’s nearly man – first falling one short of his century and then, today, falling two short of a half century. His 147 is 13 more runs than Mashonaland’s Tadiwanashe Marumani who scored a century today in his sides losing effort to Matabeleland.

 

The tournament’s best bowler is Sheunopa Musekwa whose 7 wickets for Matabeleland puts him two clear of a group of four bowlers with five wickets. The best match tally so far is Tapiwa Mufudza who got 4-26 in Mashonaland’s first round loss to Matabeleland.

 

Matches continue on Friday.
