Zimbabwe ( Squad ) : Cremer, Chakabva, PJ, Mire, Hamilton, Williams, Ervine, Chibhabha, Raza, Tiripano, Mpofu, Ngarava, Musakanda, Burl, Waller, Chatara

Should have included Kasuza, Maruma instead of Chakabva & Chibhabha

Chakabva I do not want to see near the ODI line up. He's a longer game player. Maruma, with the form he's been in, might not have been a bad choice, but he's not a long term option.

Get Mark Olonga in there...

Kasuza was good with the bat, same with Maruma and Chisoro

ZC should have given chance to some Rising Star Players like Taffy Mupriwara, William Machine

When you don't want to drop Moor and his attrocious ODI record, so you slot in someone with an equally hopeless record so as to avoid a situation where BT arrives as just a batsman, and not an automatic keeper/batsman. (I think Mutumbami would have had better returns this time around. Was very impressive in spells)

If ZC can pick Cremer and a huge paunch from his couch after idling for 18-24 months, straight into the XI then captaincy soon after that, then surely they can turn to Forster Mutizwa! Cremer's bowling was worse than Utseya's remodelled action then, and his wicekt-taking since hasn't exactly improved significantly. Why subject ZImbabwe ODI teams to Moor-Chakabva???

#BringBackForsterMutizwa!!!!!!!

If all else fails, just throw malcolm Waller the gloves. He isn't exactly doing anything much from 7/8!

Why are we playing the Dutch in 3 List A matches as warm up to the Windies Tests ??

Also why are we not 'experimenting' with the lineup considering these are just List A matches ?? I don't mind the batting side so much but surely there's no point playing Mpofu & Tiripano ?? Hopefully Ngarava plays all 3 matches.

Good practice for Qualifiers for Netherlands

Pakistan "A" are coming for some 4 day games before the West Indies Tests.

Preparing him for his inevitable role in the Tests, I think, instead of that invidious position where plays without a single practice game behind him. Only fair I think.
