The deluge that has swept over Zimbabwe for the last few weeks has taken it's toll
again, suspending play in all but one Logan Cup match, that between Mashonaland and
Mashonaland 'A'.
Bulawayo Athletic Club, host to the Matabeleland v Manicaland game, is virtually swamped,
leaving the officialls no option but to forget cricket for the day and hope for play
tommorw. Manicaland, who hosted the Midlands in the first round of this year's competition,
seemed to be dogged by bad luck whether home or away. For now, the weather in Bulawayo
seems to be clearing up slightly, so with a good day today, play will hopefully start on
time tomorrow morning.
Midlands seem to be having the same bad spell, with their match against visitors CFX Academy
put off till the morning. There has been some speculation over whether both teams should get
on the road to Harare, where a respite has allowed play to go on.
So far, the underdogs (Midlands and Manicaland) look to be having a tough time, with neither
team having posted a result, let alone put on their whites and gone out to play the game.
All that's left is to hope the rain subsides, so as not to let the Mashonaland sides run away
with the competition.
