Brad Evans is another one, though I'm not sure what he's doing.

Another white batter worth a mention is Brendan Sly, what happened to him?

Kundai Matigmu is certainly a bowler I would been keen to find out about. Saw him clock up to 86mph in the Under 19's CWC.

Again, two more white guys. Wouldn't be acceptable I guess

Vitori is needed but I have also heard he still chucks. I feel like if ZC pump some money for a specialist to get his action right he would be a lethal addition to the test side especially. Ngarava is still miles behind. A bowling attack of Chatara Jarvis Vitori and Cremer would actually be ok. He might be one of the missing links for a competitive test team

I keep asking this question and forgetting the answer...but wasnt it Ngarava who clocked 87 mph at the last U19 world cup???

Let's bring back Barney Rogers, would immediately solve our opening woes. He is only 35, so a few good years left in him.

Ryan Higgins maybe?

Middlesex started to develop him to become an all-rounder. He has now signed with Gloucestershire though.

Was he the kid that moved to England when he was very young ?

Might be hard to get him across if his ‘Zim ties’ aren’t very strong

Richie Lock is a guy who could be useful as well as I remember he was an opener ??

Hhm would be keen for him to return to fit in his team philosophy of whites opening

Not white - black, philosophy of admiring talents is finally opening in Zimbabwe keeping politics out.

Keeping seasonal failures like Chigumbura, Sibanda, Chamu, Panyangara out of the team are positive signs in Zimbabwe Cricket
