Michael Blignaut coming in down at number 9. I thought he was a batter
They haven’t got the order right on tv.

Those on the ground, who's the better prospect, Michael or Kian?

Few observations. Kian Blignaht bats like Brian Bennett. Dhruv looks promising. This Zimbabwe team might not be as good as previous ones due to lack of white players and lastly black batsmen aren’t it. They can become great bowlers but as batters they are pretty mid as even seen in SA
He has a much better technique than BB.
Bennett is talented obviously but he has one of the worst techniques I've seen for a top order bat.

Not the most talented batch we've ever had.

I was quite impressed with Kohl Eksteen from the last WC. He was tidy and swung the ball quite a lot.

Dunno where he is? Uni? No pathway.
He was ok. I didnt think he was going to go up the level.
