Looking at the conditions and the players available any sane person would go with this lineup
Chakabva
Myers
Ervine
Taylor
Williams
Madhevere
Raza
Burl
Jongwe
Muzarbani
Ngarava
If burl is injured he should be replaced with shumba ..and this should be the lineup easily ..but don't be surprised if ZC drops someone like Taylor and plays Kamunkhwane or marumani drop ngarava and play tiripano ..drop burl shumba and play mazakadaza

Anything but a 3-0 win, should get the entire coaching staff fired. We cant be losing series after series and there being no repercussions.

Myers hasnt done enough to warrant a spot in the XI. Of the emerging four, Wesly and Shumba are the ones who've made a case for their spot. Marumani and Myers need more club cricket and A games, otherwise well see a repeat of the Chibhabha, Sibanda era of merit-less selection which does more harm than good.

Ngarava has played himself into contention, he and Blessing are now undroppable. The big four have to play all these ODIs. The youngsters must fight for the remaining spots

Well, if you have been really following the series so far, you would know that we need Masakadza in that line up.

what is everyones` opinions on Jongwe. I like the guy and he can bat pretty decently too. But he has been wacked around a few times

Very unlikely the ODIs will be streamed on Twitter since the big channels have the rights. Unlike the T20 series that was meaningless and no one cared about or watched

I'm a fan, he makes things happen. Not sure he's the sort of person you want to be bowling all 10 overs in every single ODI as he isn't consistent enough. But he does make stuff happen. Bit of a livewire.

He used to be very good with the bat, actually probably better with bat than ball when he was younger. That seems to have changed since his comeback though.

I think he's a much better option that Tiripano at least.
