Pariah has gone from arguing correctly that Hami is more successful batting at 3 to lauding a 30-ball duck from Chakabva, using dodgy statistical analysis to discredit allrounders, to now wanting to drop centurions when the team loses. Quite a descent into madness. Perhaps watermelon has taken over pariah's account?

Keep it up guys. One more Test match to go then we meet here in SA.

Meanwhile Williams' Test batting average continues to slump.


I told you Jarvis was a waste. Malcolm and Williams had to be dropped, while Raza should focus on opening.


The insults won't make me any less accurate.

I suppose the funniest thing is the number of minds deeming themselves superior in some way to qualify to make estimations of mine. Hilarious.

Name another Zim seamer who was in a better position to take the new pill? Seen rumours Chatara not at full fitness, so only other option on form over last 12 months would have been Mike Chinouya. Better than Jarvis? Nope.

Had Raza opened in Zim colours (genuine question).

Quite competently and destructively in both ODIs and Tests.

That will weaken Zim and you know it.
Williams has never won a Test match with Zimbabwe.

Vusi averages 25 in Test matches Zimbabwe have won(3), while Malcolm averages just 21 (in 2).

Even stats dispute your argument.

There is a greater likelihood of ZIM winning a Test with Vusi than it will with Williams.
The team you want - Vusi, Utseya, Elton - couldn't beat the 2005 Bangladesh side. Ireland and Afghanistan are much stronger and with your blackened ZIM team, ZIM has a VERY high probability of finishing 3rd in the bottom tier of the Test league and getting demoted to the InterContinental Cup.

Wouldn't bother me, but as an alleged ZIM fan, is that what you want?
