Who is managing this team?!?! It’s a shitshow.
I’d rather have Bennett opening than at number 8 of course. But has he ever opened, ever, at any level? He is doing well today which is great, he is great, but sending him to open is clearly a wild stab in the dark from whoever is coaching this side. Dartboard team selection.

He’s doing really well, even in a completely unfamiliar position. Which says it all.

Bennett played the situation to perfection
Re: Nigeria and Uganda tour of zimbabwe
Ignore the strike rate that was a solid knock from Bennett, he reminds me so much of Craig Ervine. Plays proper cricket shots.
Thought he batted well with all 3 partners, Kamwemba clearly has a bit of flair, Munyonga always plays positive and same with Campbell, so he supported them well.
The team need to work on strike rotation though, Uganda almost fought their way back in it.
Not going read too much into this win though as positive as it is, it is just a warm up at the end of the day for the Ugandans.

Ya thrown in the deep end to open. Won them the game. Net run rate not a factor this time so no issue with his strike rate.
Re: Nigeria and Uganda tour of zimbabwe
We need more of these under 25 matches.
Was hoping shronken would get a game. He is in the squad after all.
Kamwemba looks OK doesn't he the little I seen

Re: Nigeria and Uganda tour of zimbabwe
He has a bit of flair, some very wristy shots. Just needs to keep his temperament which grows with age, he got out to a pin point yorker today which he had a waft at instead of knocking it into the turf.
I think we should send this Under 25 squad on tours, places like Kenya, Uganda. Or even Rwanda because they will actually pay for it!
Re: Nigeria and Uganda tour of zimbabwe
Finally Bennett gets a proper opportunity and he delivers , good on him 
Re: Nigeria and Uganda tour of zimbabwe
Seriously people he obviously enjoys the ball coming on so opening the batting is not sending him into the deep end at all. It's the best spot to bat in t20 games. Hopefully he gets a decent crack at it now , batting him at 7 or below was a joke in the first place.
