Yea he is evidently concentrating really really hard. Good on the bloke.

He just desperately needs to learn how to rotate that strike better. Can't keep dotting up and then smashing a six. Rotation of strike is so so important.
He's working on it in this innings.

Flopped massively but to be honest, not many of us have stood tall. Only Mazakadza

Chakabva
Mire
Mpofu
Chisoro
Waller

And include who?
For Mpofu I would get Jarvis back in obviously, and probably a wild card fast bowling selection.
Chisoro hasn't done too bad. But Williams needs to get back in.
Then there's Kazuza, Mutizwa and Burl who should be considered

You really don't give yourselves a chance of a test win when you have 5 passengers in the team..
That has been the undoing of the Zimbabwean team.
