T20 World Cup Thread Match 1 (9th February) - Zimbabwe vs Oman

[Irwin Goodman]

We've definitely missed some (quick) couple of runs with BT on the crease. At this rate, who no knows how long he will last in ODIs, time will tell soon, I guess if it already isn't duh...

[ZIMDOGGY]

What I noticed about BT today was all his runs were square or behind, you could see in his stance that he wouldnt smack a 6 down the ground if he got the opportunity.

I understand the consolidation phase but with 30-40 runs to go they should have smacked it and got it done by the 12th.

A good win but Taylor needs to step away from the game.

[Googly]

Step away? Negotiations are underway for the 2027 Wc and beyond.

[Mueddie28]

Very easy win overall but I still have enormous concerns over BT and his ability to play T20 style.

So you feel Madande ; Musekiwa and Munyonga are better players..

Of those not in the squad, Shanna, Campbell and Curran were the standout batters in the recent T20

So of course they pick Wes

They really do have no shame

What are wez’s stats for this season?

[Andy31]

Wez i dont think was even in the top 20 run scorers. His ability to bowl some spin, might be a plus.

I could be wrong but i thought we had to replace a like for like player. So you would assume another wicketkeeper or top order batter.
