Found it quite funny to hear how unhappy the Sri Lankan commentator was about the lbw turned down for Tiripano first time round, conveniently forgetting all the bad calls made against Zimbabwe.

Economical bowlers ate not required in test cricket. Test requires those bowlers who has the skills to take 20 wickets and win games. Tiripano, Mpofu are useless economical bowlers they can't take wickets, but batsmans have to make mistakes and give them wicket. They need to be kicked out. Tiripano is a tailander, he will score in one match and will got out chiefly in next match.Nayuchi & Ngarva should be brought in both have pace and can pick wickets.Chisoro should be picked as spinner

Masakadza & Mowayo are in 30s, they are in the team for their past achievements. In Cricket, current form is taken not the past achievements. Masakadza & Mowayo should do the best thing by retiring from the game as by their current form, they are struggling from last two years. Brian Chari is another rubbish, gets picked in every test sereis, but fails, still selectors have so much faith in him which is worst.

Ervine & Williams have failed but they are in form hitting tons recently.
Prince Masvaure & T.Musakanda should be brought in. Malcolm Waller should be replaced by his brother Nathan Waller, who has got some allround skills.

Masvaure
Raza
Ervine
Musakanda
Williams
Moor
N.Waller
G.Cremer
T.Chisoro
C.Mumba

24 overs remaining, 247 runs behind - that's over 10/over. This ain't T20, block it out.

Mawoyo must stay in the team, he's been at least our 4th best batsman in this match, even though that isn't saying much.

This has been a Taylor-esque match by Cremer. Really, really impressive.

And why on earth would you question Mayo's place in the team. He's the most consistent batsman, very reliable and does his job well.
