they have that aura but i don't think they've beaten any of the top sides (maybe SL?) at home for at least the last 6/7 years...

Politics-sport you can never draw th lyn. What influence can Coltard have. Heads got to roll.

David Coltart is right many times about many things. He loves cricket infinitely. Zimbabwe suffered a humiliating defeat and our feelings are common about that. The loss was disappointing, disheartening and almost sickening; it's hardly controversial.

However to put that blame on the entire organization is easily misplaced. It's easy to blame the administration when something goes wrong.

Bare in mind that a selection committee is a process with a system and a system with a process. A selection committee is not meant to be fair, it's meant to be right. Excluding Vusi was the right thing to do. He defied a basic law; a law erected to safeguard the future of cricket in Zimbabwe.
A strong cricket side has a strong foundation, it's the duty of selectors to enforce that. It's not a tea party.

But more than a match for us.

I fancy Ireland and Afghanistan would have given them a better series than we did.

Nope, Afghanistan would have been belted, likely the Irish too, they just got rolled for 100odd by Kenya.
