Vikings Cricket Club new recruit John Bosco Tuyizere has expressed his delight at joining his new club and has vowed to make it very competitive.

The 20-year-old former Right Guard and RCA Development Team player joined Vikings last month and says he is ready to help his new team gain a competitive advantage over the more experienced teams.

"It will be a difficult season because we’re a new club, still trying to find experienced players to challenge for the titles but still unexpected things happen in sports and I hope to play my role in helping Vikings become not only competitive but to challenge for trophies,” vowed Tuyizere.

The youngster did it with his former team, RCA Dev’t Team, which was founded last year in May but the youthful side managed to reach the final of the Computer Point T20 and the semi-final of UAE Exchange and 50-overs Premier League.

He noted that, "I can still do with Vikings, which is a well-organized club and they are assembling the best possible squad that will be able to challenge for trophies straight away.”

The U-19 national cricket team captain started playing cricket at the age of 14, playing for Right Guards before Joining the RCA-Development team.
