personally feel Chamu and Cephas should be there instead of Welly and Jongwe.

*facepalm*ouch!... What on earth should luke jongwe do to get dropped?..luckiest chap he is..and so what was point of this t20 tournament anyway?
Craig ervine might be warranted exclusion..going by the same logic the former captain was gasping for every run for the past few months and made a little impact for his psl franchise. hope he peaks atleast now.anyways i hope our obtuse selectors are vary of ervines odi form and do not extend this squad for odis cause they are notoriously known to do so.

Except where Hamilton is concerned, the selectors have shown us how conservative they are with the non-selection of Zhuwawo.

Chibhabha could have been in but he has only himself to blame, given than once in its very hard to be dropped from this side: look at Chigumbura, Raza and even the lamentable Jongwe who struggled against people he should have bullied this tournament.

Happy also to see the return of Panyangara and Chatara. Panyangara has improved his dearth overs bowling though I would still like to see him being bowled out upfront. We should be fine, remember that prophet said this is our year.

Do the selectors get paid to do this im angry i mean really really pissed off . they just use the odi side for everything im sorry to say this we will be eliminated by afgan . ervine chibhabha and cephas shld hv been selected and we dont need wellington we hve willow and raza already this is t20 not a test match we only need 1 specialist spinner . i will do a williams on the selectors together with zc life dictator or director mukondiwa

Let me guess, you wanted Maruma?

[Mr Twig]

Great to see Chatara back.

Elton should have been dropped.

Not a bad squad. But, we should have picked Zhuwao, Chibabha and Muzhange. If Chigs is playing he should take Jongwe's spot and if needed should bowl couple of overs. We are not utilizing PJ properly by putting him down at 7, we all know the dude can hit the ball hard. Mutumbami shouldn't have been picked when we already have PJ/Waller doing better job than him behind the wickets. Let's hope Chatara could come back to his old rhythm. If Panny and Chatara can give us good bowling start at front we could strangle any teams with our decent spin attack-Cremer/Wellington/Williams/Raza. I still feel Tiripano and Neville as safer options before Chatara at the moment,also not to forget that Neville has won us few matches single handedly in last couple of series.We should have the following XI:

Vusi
Hami
Williams
Waller
PJ
Chigs
Raza
Cremer
Wellington
Panny
Chatara/Tiripano/Neville
