He has to be selected against Bangladesh, simple.
What a talent. 2 half centuries already and as I type he has 3 wickets to his name.

Myers
Marumani
Madhevere

These 3 need to be selected in the limited over squad and given the exposure. When was the last time we had a trio of youngsters with such talent as well as producing the goods? Really exciting times

Add Shumba to that list... Zim definitely has an exciting future with this crop of youngsters

Brilliant from Tyalor, always speak so clearly.
I'm just so happy that Dion Myers is actually playing test cricket for Zimbabwe. It's a massive boost for our depth

Massive!

I think this crop of U19s has really surprised most of us. The Stuey, Sibanda, generation when they started, I do not think they were as good as this new bunch of youngsters. Milton plays with an identifiable plan and has looked fearless from when I first saw him. That opening partnership in the 3rd t20 vs Pakistan by Wes and Marumani just showed us what we have been missing over the years, which is a good start. So far in tests if the big 4 have retired, we seem to have filled up a few places already.

Test team 4 years from now.

1. Milton Shumba
2. Tadiwanashe Marumani
3. Wesley Madhevere
4. Dion Myers
5. *Peter Moor (c)
6. Ryan Burl
7.
8. Blessing Muzarabani
9.
10.
11. Richard Ngarava


*PJ Moor really needs to be patient and come back. He would have been the captain of this side coming in at 5.

The next 3 years are crucial. This bunch really needs to play as many games as possible alongside Ervine, BT, Williams, Raza, Regis. The transition should be very smooth and well managed and in this period, hopefully the U19s can produce a few more gems including a very good keeper batsmen.

Hopefully we can win a few ODIs in this period to create a winning culture before the inevitable retirements after the World cup.

The keeper and spinner are now looking like the biggest holes.

And this is where a certain Ryan Murray would slot in perfectly
