I think Moor would be a good inclusion for the ODI side for sure, but I can't believe how fickle this forum has got :lol: lets hope he can make more and more this coming domestic season. Evidently is a very good batter, but i genuinly think he's an ODI player. Burl is the guy to keep and eye on, poised on 78*, with a couple of 40's under his belt already. Time to invest in this lad. Give him a shot in the ODI side ahead of Waller and Chakabva, both of whom have demonstrated that they are longer format cricketers. Waller in the ODI side right now. I think I'm one of the few right now who really rates Waller, but not in an ODI context, especially coming in as low as 8??!!

I think Waller definately has something to offer, but in the longer format. His twin hundreds against a reasonable Irish attack demonstrate that he can play. However, his recent showings in ODI's have been painful to watch. I think I remember someone on this forum suggested he open in ODI's. Not the worst idea, as it seems the lower he bats the worse he gets. His test record is still okay by Zimbabwean standards, so if we get any test cricket (???), i'd be tempted to include him. Sorry...gone of thread as this is about the A-team game.

Good to see we have been competative so far, taking a lead. Quite enjoying these 4 day games....we seem to be making a better fist of things than the current 50 over debacles....

The longer the game, the better our chances. All relative, of course - on current form we'd still get hammered in a Test.

Glad to see a solid Zim batting performance, hope Burl can get to three figures and we get a substantial lead.

No cries of #burlmania yet. Signs that most of us quietely think (hope) that he is the real deal?
