ZIM-BD-SL Tri Series 2018: Pre-series Discussion

[Flakeman]

In BD we’ll have to go with -

1. Hami
2. Mire
3. Craig
4. BT
5. Willo
6. Raza
7. Chamu
8. Cremer
9. Chisoro
10. Jarv
11. Chats

It’s just that simple.

How people have Chamu anywhere near the Zimbabwe team In any formats is pure crazy ! The guy is a proven failure and continues to fail when picked ! He can’t bat or even pinch hit , his bowling is military medium and he has the attitude of a man not wanting to be around. Honestly pick anyone but him please , PLEASE

[CrimsonAvenger]

Yeah, Chamu in predominantly spin friendly pitches, that too in the middle order, is recipe for disaster. I'd rather have Musakanda or Mutombodzi. The latter can even provide some leg spin option in the middle overs. Both are excellent fielders too.

[jaybro]

I talking about who they will pick not who I would pick.

Chamu is a decent player by Zimbabwe standards and his bowling is very useful in odi cricket, no other seam bowling allrounder is playing well in Zimbabwe at the moment.

People are forgetting Waller’s impact in the SL series, his crucial runs in the 1st & 4th ODI’s were key to victory whilst it was his bowling that changed the game in the 4th ODI also.

Would anyone be down with Zhuwao down the order to solve the waller pinch hitter situation? Cause mire and Hammy bat well together so wouldn't open.

Great idea. I'd be happy with that

[eugene]

Is Zhuwao really good enough for international cricket?

[strikerlube]

I haven't seen him so I'd love if one of the locals could answer about his technique and how hr looks. But good form is good form - and with no domestic games how else can you choose unless you just pick from the test squad
