I suspect the England squad was picked ages ago. Maybe for visa purposes? I don't know but it's clear that it was premeditated. I doubt we will play a specialist spinner anyway

This is a good debate and why these upcoming test matches are very important from a legacy perspective for Ervine, Williams and Raza. They have to score runs to kill that debate. It's a shame BT will miss that opportunity. Bennett, Welch and Curran also have to work on their technical issues because...

To be honest Raza is the exception along with Ervine and Williams. Williams barely plays or trains but he is the first name on the team sheet. Raza is by far the most dangerous spinner we have and he is more than handy with the bat. In December he scored a hundred runs and picked up a few wickets in...

Got to play 8 batsmen otherwise we getting rinsed. If not then Newman is my pick for number 8. That will then however mean one of Welch or Wes will miss out.

I see the game or games lasting for maybe 3 and a half to 4 days because they will want to bat for a bit. Please please take quite a few seamers if we have to play the Proteas as well.

Did anyone else see the interview where our chairman says there is a possibility we play the proteas in England after. He said practice but maybe it makes sense we have an official test there before the WTC final then only one in Bulawayo.

Ngarava needs to work on his fitness. He has lost about 10kph/hour of pace. I guess they are well protected domestically but he either needs a rest or to work on his fitness. The next few months are going to be brutal. I think Newman is bowling in the late 130s already. He might actually be more of ...

If you get after him he starts bowling poorly Bazball will get after him though :lol: I'm pretty sure Raza will be the spinner they will be targeting :lol: don't see us playing less than 8 batsmen including Raza next month otherwise it will be go like those Durham matches but on global TV. He will ...

Tuned in just in time to watch that spell. Caused all sorts of problems. It's going to be a long day of ups and downs tomorrow but I still believe something can happen here. We just need a solid start as usual and someone to convert. By the end of tomorrow it will be difficult to bat Vinny like most...

I think about 300-330 is par for this specific pitch. we will see with how Bangladesh bats. I don't know if our spinners are that good though. We bowl one bad ball every other over which is more than enough in a test match.
