Nathan Waller has to be selected. He's evidently more of a bowler, but with a county 2's century (in rocket time), it's obvious the man can bat. He's probably a number 8/9 in the national​ squad.
In Waller, we at least have a very accurate, penetrative bowler in the ODI side, at a minimum. Moor is the only other guy I can think of who can genuinely clear the ropes. Malcolm Waller has done it domestically but when has he ever done it on the national stage..
I Malcolm Waller has done it in one series against Bangladesh with the help of Madziva's last over heroics..

Moor
Chibhabha
Hami
Craig Ervine
Sean William
Burl
M Waller / Raza (how ever in form)

How are these games not List A? Namibia is a FC team and our A side is a FC team.

Just looked at the second match scorecard...every single Namibian wicket is out caught. Doesn't happen too often.
Peterhouse U14C 4th change bowler and no. 10 batsman (but only because Aaron didn't have a bat).

Circumspect start form Zimbabwe today now on 50/1 after 14 overs. Chari goes cheaply yet again with an effort of 9 off 22balls. Chibhabha seemingly set at 25 off 45 balls he really has to convert more of these scores.

It's a shame for Chamu that his ton will not go into the records, he only has two of them anyway, thirteen years after his debut. His inability to kick on and/or accelerate his innings when set has plagued him throughout his career--but not today.

PJ and Chibhabha making real gains from this tour. Chari must be falling down the pecking order.

PJ belongs in the middle order, he is not an opener!

Bit mean I thought sticking payangara before him in the order. Glad Nathan could show his hitting ability in the short space of time he was allowed
