Anthony Ireland was a huge loss to Zimbabwean cricket. He was an ODI bowler of international level. Chibhahba on the other hand isn't. He shouldnt be bowling at all in ODIs let alone at first change. Ed Rainsford is a very promising bowler who needs to be back in the side. But we do need to unearth ...

Online streams of the Faithwear tournament would be nice, but perhaps rather optimistic. I can never even find online streams for ODIs from Zimbabwe. I didn't see a single delivery of the recent Zim - WI series.

Yet again Zimbabwe blew the chance of winning a match. These batting collapses are becoming tiresome. This Zimbabwe ODI team has played too many matches for inexperience to be used as an excuse. Also the fielding als o let us down at times with too many dropped chances. I see a few others on this fo...

I think a draw would be a good result at this stage! Yet again Dabengwa has done little with bat or ball. Why is he always in the team?!

I was wondering why 4 white players were in the team. I didn't think that was allowed anymore. Maybe the quota only applies to full international matches. Zimbabwe should have batted better against this 4th string Pakistan side. Yet again some strange selections such as leaving out Terry Duffin who ...

It is good to see Keegan Meth back in the mix. I hadn't heard anything of him recently and was concerned that he had moved on elsewhere. I think he has a bright future in the international game if he decides to stick with Zimbabwe.

It is pleasing to see a century from Sean Williams. Hopefully this will send a message to the selectors that he needs to be included in the team. Not that form is the main criteria for making the Zim team these days!

I dont think Utseya is worldclass. I would rather have Ray Price than Prosper Utseya. Utseya is a good container and keeps the runs down but he isn't really a wicket taking bowler on the international scene. I am not sure he is the best person to be captain of the team either. Someone like Gary Bren...

My possible Test line-up would be

1. Terry Duffin
2. Vusi Sibanda
3. Tatenda Taibu
4. Brendan Taylor
5. Sean Williams
6. Elton Chigumbura
7. Prosper Utseya
8. Gary Brent
9. Ray Price
10. Edward Rainsford
11. Chris Mpofu
