Zimbabwe Vs West Indies | 2nd Test | 12-16 Feb 2023 | Bulawayo

All Hail Kaia!!
Best "find" in years !!

If Roy can work his way back into the side then maybe the Kaia’s can start to work their way up the Zim family international scorers board

I never want to see Tsiga play for Zimbabwe again

If zimbabwe get a second innings can we try tiripano at 5.
Feel like with all our injuries and his experience he is best man for job there instead of shumba/Tsiga

I agree, no harm in giving him a chance up the order a bit, he deserves it after the first innings.

What is the point in giving him a run as a batsman?

He is 35 next month. He has only come in with low pressure situations and has never excelled when the ball is hard and fast.

Maybe he comes good after a year, then he is 36.

Ha.... and as I said that, he got out for a duck in number 11 style.

For our next tests against Afghanistan and Ireland I would like kudzai maunze to be given a run as an opener with Kaia

SZ will cook me for this, but I still think Kasuza is the best option to open with Kaia, but he needs to find some form and runs. Not sure he’ll get the chance before the next Test though.

No I really like(d) Kasuza!!! He’s just hopelessly out of form unfortunately. Same as Kaitano

Absolutely pathetic , poor Ervine and Kaia cannot do it themselves. When the older brigade do retire , there is not much to get excited about.

Seems there are alot of players out of form

[secretzimbo]

I’m convinced Kasuza and Kaitano are both better openers than both Maunze and Makoni. But can’t pick the first two with the poor form they are in unfortunately.

[Googly]

And there's the rub. With our lack of depth you potentially have to pick a guy out of form whom you know has the potential to bat at this level.
