I agree. Jongwe has his weaknesses but he is first change and he does pick up wickets regularlysecretzimbo wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 2:02 pmSo anyone who has watched the domestic streams this season and those North/South games probably wouldn’t pick Chatara in the eleven.
Picking him isn’t great. But come on - the real crime here is breaking by up our effective new ball partnership. If you’re going to play Chatara then at least ask him to try and play a containing role a bit later in the game. Ngarava has done nothing to deserve a demotion!!!
People criticise Jongwe for no reason, but he offers a point of difference and makes things happen.

Yessss Big Rich!!!
Re: 1ST ODI SRI LANKA VS ZIMBABWE

Decent pace
Definitely should have opened with Blessing
I reckon Chatara will be good at the death if it gets close.
Re: 1ST ODI SRI LANKA VS ZIMBABWE
Important wicket that, just when SLN were getting on top. Need to keep getting wickets.

Need to look beyond Chatara for sure. Tiripano, Mumba are at least able to bat and can't do worse than Chatara. Nyauchi is another option, Jongwe of course or Brad Evans.
Re: 1ST ODI SRI LANKA VS ZIMBABWE
Ah! 5 wides there. Got to keep it tight guys even if the wickets are not coming.

Jongwe right now. Evans next cab off the rank for sure. Chivanga if playing on a very quick Green top
