This a big hitting from Moor. Looks so easy
The only guy to treat these club bowlers with the disregard they deserve.
How did we lose to this mob...

I think they are like us.
They rely on that David guy and the leggie.
They fire they can win if our guys don’t.

Tim David does seem a bit out of place in this team. Wonder what his story is.

FULL NAME: Angus James Mackay

He was a bits and pieces player for the Scorchers a few years back, nothing special.

Very poor tour by Zimbabwe, average if we're being kind. Learnt nothing new except from the new guys that were selected.

Other than that, out of this entire squad, only Chatara(who should have been rested) and Wellington remain worthy for selection in LOIs.

There really should have been more sightings of Maruma and Chari.

All in all, Sikander Raza will be hurting that he wasn't part of this tour. There were plenty runs to be made, and easy wickets to be had. It might have done his T20I record a lot of good. At least 2 hundreds from him. BT being rested, Hami's retirement and Elton's injury also preserved a few T20I records I feel. I think BT would have carried his bat for pretty much all the games. Hami would have been eyeing a 150, Elton a few 50s from 20 typre of thing. Graeme Cremer might want to unretire after this game. ZIM ranked 15th in T20s, lots of games against such opposition going forward, plus T20 Competitions like Canada and Europe, the money might be too good for him to ignore. He can easily get back into the game against such sides.
Voice of reason.

His stats in T20 and list A cricket are absolutely phenomenal, and he's only 23. He doesn't appear to just your average player

How did you come to this logical conclusion..

Elton a few 50s
Hasn't scored a list A half century since February 2019, but would score 50's with a click of the fingers.

Singapore are the associate version of us. Relying on 2 or 3 guys to get the job done.

Munyonga is decent im surprised they batted him that low previously.Look we dont have world class players in the system right now but there are guys you can see that put under the right coaching can at least get us back to that number 10 spot in world cricket. The flaws you see in him,Musakanda, Kamunhukamwe, Burl, Mashinge amd Mutombodzi can be sorted out with a proper domestic system and lots of A cricket. Thats the truth.

Tari really has potential. Again he’s better than Manyonga, he’s got a 360 game, really like watching him bat.
But happy for Manyonga, grabbed his chance, that’s what it’s about.

Don't be fooled, he's got most of his runs against Vanuatu and Denmark. It shows that an Aussie club team would hammer most of these low ranked national teams.
When he played in the BBL he was okay, but nothing spectacular.
