Would drop More and Waller for Murray and Williams..

Really they should have gone with Murray over Waller
I wouldn't have been against those inclusions at all. I still think Moor is a dangerous asset to have in our lower order or up top; he can genuinely clear the ropes with relative ease.

Waller isneither use nor ornament, which is a shame as it was only a year ago he was starting to find some form and his touch. On stats alone Cremer is better.

I'd rather give Murray the gloves full time as he is clearly the best keeper knocking about, and would appear to be a more than handy batter

To be honest it looks like a pretty damn good googly. His arm action is so fast.

Meanwhile Craig plays a powerful sweep in front of square. Shot boy

Masakadza is a key player for this Zimbabwean batting..Whenever he has fallen early..we have crestfallen

Surely there must be some giveaway when he bowls the googly...What are the video analysts for?!.?!

That afghani umpire is a cheat ..he always gives soft signals in favour of the Afghans ..in a game like this where we have limited camera angles ..soft signal becomes very important ..that was clearly grassed for goodness sake ..

World record for quickest to 100 ODI wickets is Mitchell Starc. 52 matches. Rashid Khan is poised to shatter that record in the qualifiers if things go according to form.
