Zimbabwe XI to Play South Africa "A"

[secretzimbo]

I would rather have Tiripanio's wife over the Don himself.

True, she's in fine form for the ladies!!

[secretzimbo]

We are going to get absolutely fucked here.

[secretzimbo]

Mutumbami, Mayavo, Tiripano, Masvaure

[secretzimbo]

Any communication from ZC about why all three of our our Test captain, one day captain, and vice captain, all have been unavailable for some time now would be appreciated.

These squads are pathetic, I’m so pissed off.

I was honestly looking forward to this series, don’t know why I bother.

I struggle to pick an 11 here:

Kaitano
Kasuza
Madhevere (4)
Raza (captain) (5)
Burl (spare bowler)
Shumba
Mutumbami (wk)
Tiripano (spare bowler)
Chatara (1)
Masakadza (3)
Masuku (2)

12th men
Mavayo
Chivanga
Masvaure


That lineup would struggle against Uganda. Only 4 players that I would play in the strongest one day/t20 11. Losing a bit of patience with Burl. Kaitano is not a cert just yet.

Very disappointed not to see Regis, Ervine and Williams not playing. Hope the players step up and show the depth in Zimbabwe Cricket. We've got plenty of games from now until July and even August, so it's just the start of a busy season, hope the big guns will be fit for Namibia T20s next month.

Time for Wes, Shumba and Burl to step up massively with the bat if we are to have a chance of even being half competitive. This bowling lineup is awful - our three best available seam bowlers are in Nepal! Tiripano is embarrassing, Chatara we saw in SL is inconsistent nowadays, and Masuku has much more potential with the red ball than a white one. Hopefully Chivanga shows something.

How the hell is Nyasha Mayavo in this squad

[secretzimbo]

Fellas, I just looked at the South African squad again. This isn't going to be pleasant at all.

I don't understand what zc thinking. First they saying they mainly focusing on future players, but still they picking used season campaigners. Tbh playing against southafrica gives more experience so you want to pick your future players and main players to this squad.
Here they still picking Tiripano, Mutumbami in your main squad and leaving your future players like Madande, Marumani, Evans, Mavuta in second string squad

I support ZC in the squads
Mutumbami is more experienced and can help...Let Madande gain experience in Nepal...Tiripano is probably a bench warmer so let Evans and Mavuta play in Asia and benefit from the subcontinent conditions...
