Hoping Chivanga gets a chance soon. How long will he stick around for without being given an opportunity?

The main problem here is he is an excellent 4 day player and we play very little test matches

We’ll never know how he fairs in white ball cricket if he’s not given the opportunity. Raw pace has always been a valuable commodity ZC always overlooks. In some instances eg tournaments ang high pressure games, raw (and often wayward) 140 km+ bowlers eg Olonga, Tait can win you matches by simply unsettling and/or terrorising batsmen esp the lower order

Nick Gubbins has never taken a wicket in 91 previous First Class games.

Turns up here and takes a 4fer

What does he bowl? I'm assuming spin of some sort?

[secretzimbo]

Cricinfo says he's a leggy

[Googly]

I'll bet he's half decent. Did the captain just chuck him the ball or what? Or he reckoned it was a turner?

[secretzimbo]

No idea, but only 2 other wickets have gone to spin in the match, so pitch doesn't seem to be a raging turner.

Nice to see the Overseas contributing big though, even if it's not in the expected skillset!

[Donald]

Both overseas guys not having a brillisnt time of it with bat. Prospects masuku and chivanga have accounted for them

[Googly]

It goes to mindset. Batters probably saw him with the ball and thought- oh shit, we'd better watch out here, he must be good.

Zimbabwe should offer Nil Gubbins, Will Fraine, Ben Crompton, Bryan Curran & Brade Evans to play for Zimbabwe as they have no future in English set up. Getting them will make Zim strong
