Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe | Tri Series | 25 Nov 2025 | Rawalpindi

[Mr Twig]

the captain didn't get the memo. He wants Zimbabwe

[sam_ahm]

That was close. Pakistan robbed there by the umpire who gave Ashraf out when he clearly hit it with the bat. That one run would have also got Agha on strike.

Instead they were docked that run and Ashraf remained on strike.

What pathetic level of umpiring. Idiot.

[Googly]

Well that fat piece of shit umpire had the last say there.
Off the middle of the bat, gives it out, run cant be taken and Salman stays off strike.
Wasim Jr the match fixer was on strike though. He was the guy that went for 40, bowling wides at will and missing the stumps from 1m by 3m.
Eeish I've got BP.
Great game of cricket despite that.

Please Mr Musk invent cheap robot umpires. Send rhem free to Zimbabwe.

Adam theo reports that ZCB and PCB are negotiating to play 1 or 2 test after the conclusion of the Tri series

He's hugged it out with ZC.

[Googly]

That's Munyonga's, Taylor's and Musekiwa's ticket to the WC, they will be hugging it out as well.
We are doomed.

You'd think 3 more T20's would be the way forward?

Don't ZC understand that simply by playing their favt players in the XI who fail to perform only makes them a laughing stock in front of the whole world. Instead, playing their best XI would mean better results for which ZC can take credit and boast about.

It is also not good for the players themselves.. Doesn't do their confidence any good and they literally go no where.

I dont know why but alot of Africans dont seem to think like this. It is common sense though.

What in the team limit of the World Cup Squad
18 players or 16 players
Hopeful Myers and Munyonga or Madande could be dropped to give Curran and Welch a chance..

Now after zimbabwe stand knocked out, I think ZC might just show a little interest in getting atleast Sean Williams back for the 2026 T20 WC cuz at age 39, even ZC knows Taylor Ervine Raza Williams Cremer might not make it to the 2027 ODI WC. Reality is Craig is 40 atm & he is injured half of the time.. Williams will turn 40 next year with raza taylor cremer but the issue with williams is that he keeps on questioning the coaches.. he had problems with mangongo, rajput & ntini. Other than all this, I think Ervine should be recalled for the 2026 T20 WC , ervine is a lefty.. left right combo can disturb bowlers with their line & length.. if taylor is out of form & scoring run a ball, just get ervine to play in his place.. if Williams is somehow back , his left arm spin can prove to be useful in subcontinent. Pitches towards the end start to support spin a bit more, williams can be effective cuz he can take down any attack with his batting to support his bowling.. as far as ive seen him bowl, he slows it up a bit and his action from wide of the crease helps him to turn the ball more than wellington ever did. If williams plays, wellington doesnt go the world cup next year .. cremer is left as your only frontline spinner.. if cremer can help burl develop a good wrong un(AKA googly) before he retires, burl can play as a proper all-rounder like raza & williams. That would be enough to bench cremer & play someone like jongwe in his place. I still believe jongwe can smash bowlers at the death and if he can control his line & length, he can take one spot in the playing XI, definitely maposas. Muzarabani will obviously return, Ngarava/newman r your left arm seamer, evans is a fast bowling all-rounder, jongwe just might be the X factor in crunch games. If the pitch offers some turn, play cremer, against oppositions like aus & ire, if not, then play jongwe against SL & whoever the last team is in Zimbabwes group. Curran Naqvi Welch madande campbell can take spots in place of marumani myers taylor musekiwa munyonga. If Burl retains his form, a new look Zimbabwe playing XI with muzarabani ,jongwe ,ngarava, raza & naqvi as 5 players of color (if there is any quota system) team up with williams ,bennett , burl , evans ,welch/campbell ,ervine/taylor/madande.. damn.. this 11 can even give Aus a run down memory lane(2007 T20 WC)..

Taylor campbell ervine cremer sit on the bench.. pick anyone as a reserve.. madande hit a last ball 4 against ireland in 2023.. he & jongwe ripped apart sri lanka where ervine scored 70 in a t20i. Madande is their future white ball WK batsman if you ask me. Marumani has failed in the longer run.. no 50+ score in the AFG series & he failed in the tri series too.. PJ Moor went to Ireland & Chakabva decided to play club cricket down under in AUS.. so madande & tsiga r really the only ones left for WK duties.
