Can any of the forum cognoscenti tell me who the most technically correct batsmen in the country are (old guard not included)?

Wess, imho, has been a failure of coaching. How can someone with so much talent and clear ability look so all at sea? Does no one discuss building an innings with him ever?

Ireland will go hard in the first 6 overs and trying and get ahead of the rate. Up to Blessing and Richie to do some damage. Pitch looks fine from what we saw.

Tbh it's a lot of the slightly older doemstic stalwarts. Age and experience helps so much. Guys like Innocent Kaia. Masvaure, Chari, Kasuza etc. They all have solid technique especially at the domestic level. Gumbie has improved so much.

Shumba is solid. Can't write him off yet.

We are 20 runs short as is the case in every T20 match we ever play.

A reminder: ZTV is the worst television station the world has ever seen. Hezbolla educational channel has to be vastly more entertaining.

It’s almost mid night in Oz, if the big boys don’t take a few early wickets I’ll be shooting off to bed

Ali Hamid has a really nice technique but always finds ways to get out. Kataino as well shapes up nicely.
