I said on the other thread-
Roy is 11th on the Logan Cup leaderboard. Do we assume they've shelved the stats story? I hope so, because it's not entirely relevant in our situation.
Cant wait to hear the new enlightening narrative.
Still waiting for a link on the post match presser for the last T20 as well.

What's the issue with Ngarava?

If Roy can't bowl internationally, have we picked him solely as a bat?

I think they're giving him a swerve for now. He's been less than convincing in red ball.
It's tough understanding them. I dont think we're supposed to. What theyre really saying is we dont have to explain anything, we can pick our friends and family any time we want to and there's not a thing you can do about it.not now and not ever!
I mean if i was going to pick an older guy Maruma is the only choice. He's a fine player.
The up and coming batters almost ready to attempt this level are Frost, M Campbell and Melch. Melch has the advantage of potentially being the keeper batter we are looking for- in all formats. At least let these guys net and have a look.
I'm taking them off the very leaderboard they claim to use, which is now proving to be inconvenient.

Is this the official squad or fantasy?
Its important etiquette to post a source if its official...

So the best team here is:
Bennett
Curran
N.Welch
Williams
Ervine
Raza
Madande
Newman
Masakadza
Blessing
Chivanga
But since this breaks quota (is it 5 or 6?) expect Kaia or Gwandu to sneak in there over Welch or an Ervine 'Injury' or Raza pulling out to play a Nepalese T20 tournament.
