The game is better than what I had expected. They play a good cricket, according to the standards and I am impressed by the level of all the teams that have participated.

It’s great and above my expectations; they have shown a lot of potential in them, commitment and how they play, Good cricket.

 

What was your expectation before watching their games?

 

I really didn’t know what to expect; From what I have been hearing and what I have seen it is amazing. seeing is believing.

 

What made you impress more?

 

Most countries never had the background of cricket but their progress is remarkable and I am more impressed by Tanzanian girls, they have displayed a very good cricket and I am hoping in near future they should be in top ranks, if the spirit is maintained.

 

What made you to visit Tanzania?

 

I have been hearing a lot about Tanzania, so I thought to visit and see for myself, and I am pretty impressed by the level of cricket and the organization committee.
