[MATCH THREAD] 2nd Test Afghanistan v Zimbabwe @Abu Dhabi

[CrimsonAvenger]

Wes has just one thing to do now. Study the career of Marvan Attapattu.

8,000 runs up for sloan, well batted lad.


Wez is probably the biggest talent to come out of the country since Taylor (with the bat), so he needs to be stuck with, period

I cannot for the life of me understand why the decision makers in the team keep on insisting on throwing young guys ahead of more experienced players. I just don't get it. I have no idea why Regis, Sean or Raza keep on insisting on using the inexperienced as shields instead of stepping up and taking responsibility. A bunch of fucking cowards!

I hope Wes recovers from this. This is going to shatter his confidence. He had no business playing in this series.

Wes is not ready for Test matches ,keep him in T20 or One day games, too much pressure on him.

We need Taylor and Ervine back in the squad as soon as possible.

Musakanda is still half baked as well, Wes is way undercooked for Test match cricket.

Burl is in a similar situation like Wes.

I would be persistant with PJ moor Ervine Taylor,Raza,Regis as the mainstay of the middle order

questions we deserve answers to in press conferences, they cannot continue coaching without accountability.

Agreed, he's definitely a future talent but he doesn't have the experience in first class cricket to play tests right now. We rushed him into the test playing XI when he had a grand total of 3 first class games under his belt. I hope the coaches and board have enough brains to realise what a gem he is and not drop him forever, but I'm scared of that possibility.

Did Brendon Taylor have any FC experience before his Test debut?

[ilovearsenal04]

Is Rashid giving Raza some stick? Are they not good friends? On tweeter they seem to go along well if i am not mistaken?

[CholeZimbo]

Raza will always go out caught in the field, always!

Well played Sean
