Honestly the batting has been shambolic in the middle order and we need to chop and change. Only saving grace for Williams now is his bowling because he is off form really. Chakabva is a passenger for two tests in a roll now. Malcom waller really does not look confident. My team suggestion second test.
Masakadza
Mire
Ervine
Taylor
Williams
Raza
Moor (wk)
Cremer
Jarvis
Chatara
Mpofu

Replace Mpofu with Tendai Chisoro or Ndolovu. Bulawayo track is supporting spinners.

Chatara
Chamu can score against the West Indian fast bowlers upfront. Hami looks in very good touch right now, might be better to put him in his best position with BT at 4. From what I saw BT and Hami are the only combo I can see actually building a solid 100+ run partnership and they won't run each other out because they know they are both slow.
Tired of Regis, his average has dropped to 25 now and he still drops a couple. PJ will drop a couple but at least I know he can scrape 30 runs against someone like Bishoo or a part timer like Chase. That Bangladesh tour might have been a fluke. If Chatara is bowling in the 4 day game then they need to get him in the team ASAP. We all know he has that one unplayable delivery in him.
The most shocking thing for me so far is that Cremer spins it more than Bishoo and these guys face him in the nets everyday in those exact same conditions yet they struggled more than guys who get peppered by fast bowls mainly everyday and were in foreign conditions against a guy who spins it more than their incumbent leg spinner.. Ridiculous..

You will never improve your game against spin by facing Cremer!
These ZIM players had the privilege of facing Price, then Utseya. ALL international players of every class used to struggle to score runs off those two.
Not so with Cremer. He poses absoultely no threat and doesn't restrict run scoring in anyway shape or form.
In fact, so poor is Cremer's game that those around him suddenly think Williams and Raza can actually bowl.

Cremer has taken 28 wickets in four games
Utseya cheated and only managed 10 wickets in four games
