Why do Zimbabwe persist with these bloated squads? And how does the undeserving, underachieving Chibabha always
manage to find his way in?

Matsikenyeri is our own version of Ashraful. Selectors look like they wait patiently for just one score of more than 50 to chuck them back in. It looks like Matsikenyeri's 20/20 half centuries will get him a place in the test side in the middle order.

Id be suprised if the sqaud was only 15 players if we take the fact that Mawayo is a test specilaist and the Chibahbha is a T20 specialist. Also it will be difficult to fit all three spinners in the sqaud if its only 15 players with streak hinting that its a battle between Cremer and Price for the test match spot.

But if it is only 15 then i would leave out

1. Chamunorwa Chibhabha
2. Christopher Mpofu
3. Njabulo Ncube
4. Regis Chakabva,
5. Matsikenyeri/Utseya/Cremer

I'm actually not too fussed that matskinyeri had been included. He went away and scored heavy runs so i don't see the big problem there. However, Craig ervine's omission from the squad again is very sad. Would have liked to see him in our test squad for sure

I'm glad to see Shingi Masakadza and Foster Mtizwa in the team, so I will take my disappointment of seeing Chibhbha's name in there, with the hope that he wont be picked in any of the matches. He probably won't ;)

God there are some deadbeats in this squad. Matsikenyeri, Chibhabha, and Chakabva should not be in the squad. Why is Craig Ervine left out? There is a conspiracy here - either he is being punished for the actions of his brother or there are quotas going on again.
