How long is the tour supposed to be for? It will definitely cost a fortune. They might have been able to do a longer SA tour. SA doesn’t really help us that much. I saw Houghton complaining about this.

What they would ideally do is give these guys high performance contracts and have them touring England, India, Pakistan and probably SA. Will cost a lot of money but we have no choice at this point. Instead of a Vic Falls stadium we could build a world class academy for 10 million. Nobody will be playing in that stadium if our cricket collapses.

He’s averaging 10.6 from his past 6 innings.
Nick Welch is averaging 5.6 in his last 6 too but if there was an ‘A’ tour I would expect him to get picked.

Key difference being Nick has a Zimbabwean passport, is a patriot and is passionate about playing for Zim and not just using us for other means.

Well they're picking on latest form, they've made that clear, so they should omit both of them. Perhaps they'll come good in a year or two.

That’s fair enough if they stick to it. Exceptions to be made for Hamilton and Roy of course.

The same umpire has stuck NW 3 times now. I wonder if he's joined those dots?

There is no squad btw, the player lists I posted weren’t a squad.

He hasn’t been at the trials this week. Still suspended
