Apparently not. Probably has to do with a packed international schedule for Zim that coincided with BPL this time. Or probably they did not feel anyone was worth it. Not even mercenaries like Sean Ervine this time, He was woefully bad last time anyway, so was Taylor. Only Waller did anything of note. But I see a lot of Lankan discards, the usual WI brigade and the odd Englishman and a bunch of Afghans there. Good for the Afghans. Good exposure.

Mostly Pakistani, WI, and Lankan discards. English players are county scrubs, guys who wouldn't even make a 5th string England side. 3 Afghans from what I saw, surprisingly no Irishmen. Waller did well last time and should have been picked.

I bet you Waller will show up when the tri series ends. No way whichever team he played with will forget the value he brings. Hami did well during the DPL last year, so he will probably get a deal too. And Williams. I'd add ervine and Mumba myself.
