Apart from Taylor & Raza, no other Zimbabweans.

That’s a shame but yet again another reason why Zimbabwe needs their own t20 competition

Sean Williams will play for the Rangpur Riders. Clearly his good form in the recent tour has put him in the shop window. Ironic given that I think T20 is the format that he is least suited to.

That is great for Williams!

I agree that his batting might be best in ODIs and Tests, but I think his bowling is very effective in T20s.

I'm not sure how BPL works with overseas slots in the starting XI, is he likely to get any games? Cause with Chris Gayle, Alex Hales and AB de Villliers as well as some others there is a lot of competition for spots.
