Still no Murray.

Hoping to see my man Neville Madziva get a run today, as Googly pointed out it's ridiculous Murray isn't playing after his heroics in the Africa t20.

My XI

Hamilton
Mire
BT
Tari
Williams
Chigumbura
Chisoro
Madziva
Mavuta
Jarvis
Chatara

Light on batting but in t20's I tend to count on the batsman to make the runs and I like to give myself extra bowling options.

Yeah, batting looks scary but we don't have much left on the bench. We should hope that Chisoro and Madziva can step up with the bat, which they can. Slightly tempted to have Mpofu in for Jarvis. Might blast a couple of sixes if lucky...

Shocking. I wonder who came up with this idea of selecting all the squads way before

God we’re in trouble if we’re picking Bobby for his batting 😂😂😂

Madziva is an interesting case for ZC. I am a fan. Hopefully he can make a comeback. Reminds of Tiripano but just more aggresive with bat and ball

:lol: :lol: What I should have said was those sixes he can potentially biff are an additional qualification. Mpofu might anyway be a better white ball option than Jarvis especially in T20s with a few more tricks up his sleeves.

Get Chigumbura and Mavuta away from your damn squads. Mavuta will be massacred with his standard 3 longhops an over. The only hard decision comes with what order Mire, Hami, and Chamu should bat in the top 3. Murray isn’t in the squad I don’t think . I just don’t think Madziva is good enough. I’ve watched him live too many times and is the least threatening bowler I may have ever seen. I’d probably go for Don over PJ at 7, even though we have bowling covered. We need to play our 2 left arm spiners, the fact is they both have extremely low economies in this format. But they won’t. This will be the team they go for vs my team.

XI we will play tonight

1. Ham
2. Mire
3. BT
4. Williams
5. Elton
6. Tari
7. Madziva
8. Mavuta
9. Mpofu
10. Jarvis
11. Chatara

My XI

1. Mire
2. Ham
3. Chamu
4. BT
5. Williams
6. Tari
7. PJ/Don
8. Chisoro
9. Wellington
10. Jarvis
11. Chatara

My XI:

1 Hamilton (C)
2 Mire
3 Musakanda
4 Taylor
5 Williams
6 Moor (WK)
7 Chibhabha
8 Chisoro
9 Mavuta
10 Jarvis
11 Chatara

It's disappointing not to have Murray and Kamunhukamwe in the T20I squad.
