Wes and Marumani need a long run in the domestics imo, they look out of confidence and could certainly use a break for their own benefits.
Get some top scores like milton and tony, get back into the team.
Simple equations....

Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | 2nd T20I | 9 November 2023
I felt gwandu came back well after his first over. He will come good with some polish I'm sure. We need to persist. Bennett with a nice over that and a nice catch under pressure. I'm backing him to start firing with the bat sooner than later. I've to say though. I like willo's captaincy a lot more than I like raza or ervine's.

Madande continues to impress. He really has a bright future I think.

Muscle mass does matter. I'd love to see a slightly well built Zimbabwean cricketers, esp the batters. The likes of Marumani, Madhevere, Bennett, Shumba, Madande need to build some muscles. That's one reason I prefer Kaia and K-long.. At least they are well built and can hit the ball hard. It matters.

I still can't get over Tsiga playing those Tests earlier in the year instead of Madande. Criminal. He's a proper bat in the longer form. Has one of the most beautiful straight drives you'll ever see in Zimbabwe.
Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | 2nd T20I | 9 November 2023
Madande is a fairly good batsman, esp in ODIs and Tests. Problem is his keeping, he is a very average keeper and that is where he needs to improve.secretzimbo wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 5:30 pmI still can't get over Tsiga playing those Tests earlier in the year instead of Madande.

Ya. He's only been keeping for a couple of years though so he should improve.sam_ahm wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 5:32 pmMadande is a fairly good batsman, esp in ODIs and Tests.

We were really spoilt with Chakabva. It flew under the radar but his glovework in his final two years was phenomenal. He improved hugely behind the stumps, really was world class most of the time.

Is burl all muscle? Seems a stocky fella and can whack it miles.sam_ahm wrote: ↑Sat Dec 09, 2023 5:25 pmMuscle mass does matter.

Williams might be injured so munyonga comes in tomorrow.
Can we maybe add an extra batsman to side as marumani and madhevere need benching.
K long did very well. To be honest he had two scores of 30 plus vs namibia and was cruelly left out.
Think People like Campbell macmillan and Kamwembwa are maybe two peeps who will play sooner rather than later
