Blame raz dawg when it all goes Pete tong. Should not have risen to the Irish lads chirping and got himself a ban :lol: poor captaincy.

We are going to get smashed with that batting line up. :lol:

Or could they surprise us all. Century from Wes :lol:
Generally in t20 if you only need one or two guys to make a score, and you’ve got a competitive total. But yes this batting lineup looks super thin.

Hopefully we see Madande & Burl at 3&4 but I get a feeling they’ll just throw Bennett & Munyonga to the wolves.

How exactly are Zimbabwe winning this is difficult to comprehend. Ireland massive favourites.
They aren’t
Ireland are 1.53 on bet365

Would have been an all under 30 side if Wellington was not brought back.

I'm out here asking for them to pick a specialist spinner.....and then suddenly they go to the extreme and pick 2?!?! Wellington wasn't even in the squad.

Some of these selections Dave makes are very bizarre. Let's hope they work for once today.

Understand the logic though, left arm option needed. But now we have Jongwe as a 3rd pacer which is not ideal.
