Well let’s just say I’d back Cephas to smash their left arm spinners into early retirement. Anything turning into him he absolutely obliterates. Against anything over 140, he would struggle I think.

Okay that sounds better than waller at 8 bowling absolute dribble.

Also guys I think if ervine can't handle 3 musukanda certainly can't. Muskanda surely below 4. Team full of 5s and 6s God dammit

Mosaddek and 7 other Test specialists have been dismissed from the training squad to play in the BCL first class competition. Mosaddek howeve is expected to be in the ODI squad and the chief selector states, he's being sent to "bat a longer innings". No doubt due to him playing as a bowler in the BPL. He did have scores of 35 and 50* in the final round of NCL matches indicating he is slowly getting his form back.

What ever happened to all the promising Under 19's from the last U19WC?

I'm starting to tire of our team. It is lacking in options and depth. Other than Kyle and Blessing, I haven't seen much variation in our bowling and that makes us too easy to play. Our batsmen could also do with a fresher. I've seen players with much worse figures get dropped for a lot less by other teams.

I dont know man , give blessing another full year or two of cricket all of a sudden Jarvis / Chatara / Blessing with Cremer more experienced doesn't look too bad. Especially with Raza/Williams. Other than 3 pace right armers it doesnt look so bad.

Has Sean Williams actually been picked??

Apparently he will not be in the squad.

Ryan Murray is netting with the squad. Big Bully also in the mix according to reports.

[Kriterion_BD]

Williams almost never offers anything with the bat so he won't be a big loss IMO.

However his bowling has really come on of late and that will be missed as both he and Raza are good enough to shoulder full time bowling duties.
