Milton is a straight up guy, doesn't drink doesn't smoke. Works reasonably hard by all accounts. He's not a regular in the side and has big incentive to improve. He also understands the nuances of the game. I think we'll see more of him.
Ya, this! Have heard it said since u19’s - if we could combine Wes’ talent with Shumba’s head we’d have a serious player.

I like Gumbie. He a pint sized fellah but values his wicket. Also has an array of shots to get himself out of trouble

Gumbie finished with a strike rate of 70 which is decent.
He a chap who likes to assess conditions early on. Saw some of his reverse sweeps and Innovations and shows that he can up ante when his eye is in.

With your tongue so deep in his arse it’s probably difficult for you to notice, but he got good runs the other day and may well have already booked his place on the plane. I should imagine they therefore wanted to give the likes of Shumba and Madande an opportunity for some time in the middle ahead of him today.

Would have liked to have seen matty welch in squad. Maybe against a tough sri Lankan side its too much too soon for him but if he keeps knocking down that door with domestic runs he will put forward an irresistible case.
