A. Zimbabwe like to chase so playing an extra batsman makes sense
So they have superhuman powers now and can dictate the toss??? :?
B. Zimbabwe don't have anyone who averages over 40 and are very very susceptible to batting collapses and being bowled out for 50 ( like they did against Afghanistan).
Don't drop Dav Whatmore's failings on the country's lap.
Not matter which way you look at it Zimbabwe beat Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka using this game plan so it has som merit
Zimbabwe beat SL because of Hami, Mire and Tari, plus SL's own uselessness coupled with potential match-fixing. Had Craig Ervine not scored that first innings in the Test, then it would have been over as a contest very early.

Like I said, once "independent" Kriterion is done with his SL statistical analysis, you can what the "allrounders" genuine nett contribution was on that tour.
I said they like to chase I didnt say they chase in every match, once again Hhm failing to read what others on the forum write. I've told you before chump you really need to rectify this.

What does having no batsman averaging over 40 have to do with Whatmore ?? If you had half an idea you realise that most of the batsman actually improved their averages or achieved their highest scores playing under Whatmore, but you don't care about stats when they don't back up your arguement.

The Sri Lanka series was a team effort pretty much every player chipped in at some point except PJ.

I have a suggestion for you. Why don't you go to one of the SL tour threads and apply your method for the Test, and then the ODIs. We'll sample it there.

Mine is really best suited to analysing an entire career rather than a series. Its also restricted to Test cricket for the time being.

I can try to whip something up for ODIs but you will have to give me some time. I will try to get it before the WC qualifying tournament for sure so you can discuss it in the context of a major tournament.
