How does Nick Welch not make the squad? So much for Raza not making himself available. When was the last time he played any long form cricket?



My XI:

Curran
Gumbie
Ervine
Williams
Campbell
Raza
Bennett
Mavuta
Muzarabani
Ngarava
Chataira

I told you he'd pick himself. :lol:
He's not getting picked too readily for any T20's off the back of these last two series so he'll have some free time.

I wonder if he's picked himself as captain? Keeps Welch out so that ticks a big box.

Watch until Faraz decides he wants a test cap, I reckon that is coming.

Raza is part of the problem, becoming very obvious now.

Aah I see on a post that ICC will pay 10k per player per test from 2025
I'm guessing Hamilton and Elton are making a comeback?

Thought ervine was test captain? Ya Faraz will be after a test cap.. I’d take him to England and at least have a look. Dukes ball and weather might make him a contender.

It's a disgrace actually. Makes a mockery of the whole thing.
He won't cope either. Associate bully.
