The Gems Of Zimbabwe Clash With The Flames Of Malawi

Zimbabwe’s Netball Team, the Gems, on Thursday (today) will clash with Malawi in a Vitality Netball World Cup match in Liverpool.

The Gems who have been impressive in this tournament with three wins and two losses so far, aim to upset the Flames of Malawi who have so far been beating Zimbabwe.

A win against Barbados is viewed by some a morale booster for the Gems who entered the tournament as underdogs.

Netball enthusiast, Shakeman Gosha, is betting on the Gems to upset the Queens of Malawi saying the history does not matter. Gosha said:

Malawi has always beaten us in most of the games, but history does not remain the season and I think this time, this is our chance.

Another staunch supporter, Samson Muchinapo, is not intimidated by Malawi’s impressive record and world ranking. Malawi is ranked ninth in the world and considered a very strong team whilst the Gems are on number 13. Muchinapo said:

The world rankings do not matter in world sport. With the way we are playing, I think we are far much better than the Flames.

He notes that the Gems won against Sri Lanka, Northern Ireland and Barbados who are ranked well above Zimbabwe’s team. Northern Ireland are ranked eighth and Barbados 11th.

The Gems are currently placed fourth in the six-team Group F with four points, the same as Malawi, and a win over the Flames could push them to six points, passing the Malawians.
