About 3qrt through it and not bad so far.
i think their is huge value with him being a coach.
Just wish the interview didn't interrupt as much.

He should have just come back as a coach not sure how much he has left to contribute as a player. He does seem in better shape than some of his playing days. Does he walk straight back into national colours. We do need a keeper but at 39 that could be tricky. Cant find fault in ZC though he has always spoken highly of the hand that giveth.

I thought he'd negotiated to be cleared now?
Would have been interesting to see how he went against Durham. He'd struggle.

A very good news for Zimbabwe Cricket the return of Brendan Taylor.
He would definetely still have a few years as player. Coaching can wait.
As a christian I also found inspirational his witness. Brendan Taylor is a man to be admired.

Did not want BT back initially but he would really improve our T20 side. Not sure about the other formats but T20 is a must at the top of the order and as a wicket keeper.

Thinking further with this.
I think he be great for the A tours.
Experience for the younger ones.
If he can’t make runs there, then no international games.
Be a player coach
