Can A Zimbabwean Cricketer Out Shine David Warner In Zim Afro T10? Sikandar Raza Is Hopeful
Australian David Warner is one of the most destructive batters in the sport of cricket, and his focus is now solely on piling on the run at the picturesque Harare Sports Club. But, be that as it may, Sikandar Raza is hopeful that one of the players from the Zimbabwe cricketing family can outperform the international stars at the second edition of the Zim Afro T10. Raza, who is hopeful that the second season will match up in terms of the high-quality of cricket that was on display in the inaugural edition, said, "We have attracted a lot more international cricketers, with the likes of David Warner, one of the main signings of the season this year. What T10 has done with the signings this year in all the six franchises, this is going to be a very exciting tournament for sure."
"But more importantly, what I'm looking for is that I'm really hoping and praying and wishing that it's a Zimbabwean who scores the most number of runs, takes the most number of catches, and takes the most number of wickets, because our the growth for Zimbabwean cricket in this tournament is very crucial and that's what I am looking forward to," the Zimbabwe captain asserted.
While Warner, along side the likes of Dawid Malan, James Neesham, Colin Munro and others are among the big signings, pacer Blessing Muzarabani is the only Zimbabwean to have been picked as the Global Icon for the NYS Lagos. And his national team skipper is mighty happy about that.
"Certainly, very happy with that, Blessing has done really well over the past year and he has suddenly earned that right to be a Global Icon as well. As long as there is Zimbabwean representation it makes me happy regardless of who that is. So, I'm really happy and proud of Blessing."
