That's what I get for copy'n'pasting from the original squad announcement that Taylor was left out of. D'oh!

Fixed. Thanks for the heads-up.

Happy to see Zimbabwe getting stronger day by day (as a Bangladeshi).

Full support to Zim against all other teams except BD...
Its only good for cricket

Chibahba should play over Craig Ervine in the first ODI, or maybe play Ervine but leave out Flower. But i doubt this'll happen since all the hype has been surrounding his inclusion

Chibhabha would certainly play ahead of Ervine, and Flower too deserves to play ahead of Ervine, with all that record behind him. If anything, Ervine would have to force his way back in.

Yep he certainly would, but i'd like to see him play in the series still. If Dabengwa is in the side i'll go nuts !

Agreed . Dabengwa did not justify his inclusion in the squad with both bat and ball .

I mean for crying out loud, okay he scored 12 off 3 balls. Wupty doo !!
His offspin is poor, and i've seen him field and he's not of international class

Can't believe it.

We're actually discussing who to leave out because we have too many batsmen. And one is Craig Ervine who played a fantastic knock against India (I think) the other month!

I love it!
Who would of thought that a couple of years ago
