Damn, ZIM on course to very plausibly top the group! Whowouldathought?

They need to play Ben in the Ireland game. He is a solid no3/no4 option & can bat at other positions too if raza & burl come up the order if the situation demands power hitting. One of myers/tony should get dropped.

Ireland has played against Zimbabwe a lot and their plans on how to tackle Muzarabani & co. will be a lot more clear than any other team. If Ngarava is fit, one of the spinners go out, but I think Raza should play 2 frontline spinners. It's worth the gamble. Cremer can really slow things down in the middle overs if his split webbing issue is sorted

They won't drop a batter from the game today, nor should they.

Also... like it or not, Madande would be ahead of Curran in the queue to bat at any slot other than opening, or possibly 3.
