Zimbabwe Squad for Sri Lanka

[secretzimbo]

We are going to get hammered

[CalZim]

This is the squad from the cricinfo article I think it is right. A few things:

Ndlovu?? Where was he for the regionals

Mumba? I’m sure he pulled his hamstring in the regionals, must have just been cramp

Akram

Bennett in t20 squad but not the ODI squad

Gumbie in the t20 squad must be in for his keeping as he is not a t20 batsmen, will probably be buried low in the order unless he opens with K-long but he is not a t20 player.

It’s good to see different squads for the different formats, those 3 will probably fly over later in the week after the ODIs have started to save costs.

Overall I think I’m okay with the squads, would have like to have seen Gwandu and Bennett in the Odis for Akram and Kaitano though.

R.I.P Zim Cricket no idea once again , incompetence of the highest order.

[mnelson68]

What a joke Gumbie in the 20/20 squad and Bennett ommited from the ODI squad ( His strongest suite)

Selectors don't know their arse from their elbow

Gumbie playing t20 just shows how backwards these bafoons are.

[mnelson68]

The Gumbie selection is hilarious. Maybe he can see off the first 10 overs

Beyond comprehension , they seriously are their own worst enemies.

Last chance saloon for Milton.

He's 23. Career barely started.

Bennett for T20s but not ODIs is stupid.

Happy for Mufudza, I haven't ever seen him play but looks like he has been pushing for selection for quite some time now, hope he does well.

Munyonga is again a poor selection.

Gumbie for T20s is again stupid but he probably won't get a game.

Overall I think it is pretty much on the expected lines. Don't have anyone else, so it is what it is.

Glad to see chatara is out of squad. They so need to look beyond him but I'm not sure faraz is the answer.

Munyonga has potential for sure from little I have seen of him. Freezes a bit on national stage is all at moment.

Gumbie for 20,20 and not Bennett is hysterical. Someone has been meddling there .

Happy with Gumbie in ODI as the lad deserves it. K long also deserves an extended run. Has been in form domestically and shown glimpses at national level.
Kaitano has experience of sri Lankan conditions and did reasonably well for ZC standards.
Wellington

The player with the decent 50 over average is jono Campbell scoring 34 each game. Decent by ZC standards but he needs hundreds

So gumbie and shumba make both squads but not Bennett.
Shumba should have been purely for ODI same as Gumbie.
There should be a emoji just for this decision
