Campbell, Welch, Curran could have played this series and there is a good chance Zimbabwe would have won the series too, but we all know it will never happen.

The writing is on the wall, ZC is all set to die a slow, painful death.

I actually don't blame Afghanistan for avoiding a series against Zimbabwe everytime. They are literally wasting time playing against a crap bunch of players.

Gwandu looks a far better batter than Blessing or Richie.

No reason why after being 57/3 we could can got to 145. Far more time in these T20s than the guys think.

Akram in at 6 was fucking horrendous, Zolsky caught red-handed on Twitter responding to every man and his dog doubting Akram's selection. 'He'll get us runs and wickets'. Sure mate.

Musekiwa genuinely looked neat out there, but fell to the trap laid by Rashid. Gwandu needs to bat higher.

This was not a bad series for guys on the fringes to miss. They are in a better position then if they had played.

All races just looking after themselves only if true.

This game as absolutely winnable with proper selection.
That last Akram over was embarrassing to watch, Judy the fact that is a frontline bowler. All 105 kms an hour of him.

Reminds me when prosper was selected when he was banned from spin
