My question is whats Chugumbura's role in the team. Mire is very well the allrounder. So if Chigumbura is a batsman who bowls (not that he does much in either department) but his very much the furniture in team than we need to give Mupariwa a run. He is very much a proven wicket taker with the best average of any Zimbabwean. That should count for something as we have been lacking in the wicket taking department.

And if Chibhabha and are injured get Brain Vitori on a plane.

Is there any news on the injuries of Chibhabha and Mire? What are the chances for them playing?

I never imagined we would all be clamouring for Chibhabha's return to the top of the order.

Ive always been a fan of Chamu I started a thread about him a year or so ago and copped some flack for saying I think he goes alright lol

Against pace he looks at ease but struggles against the spin which forces coaches to make him open where most of his success has been at first drop, I look at his average and think he is a much better player then 21 or what ever it is, I feel he is good enough to average 30 but probably suffered from being thrust into the national team and being a senior player instantly. Plus like most Zim batsman he would be better with more exposure to foreign conditions, A tours, more first class cricket and better coaching ......

In saying all this he has been out of form for years and somehow made the squad but has been in great touch ever since .....

That happens to most Zim seamers they just cant match their pace though out the innings. I reckon if we have an extra seamer in the side Panyangarara can bowl out his overs and a someone else can bowl at the depth. i.e Mupariwa.
