Looks like we should temper our expectations for this World Cup

Our worst u19s ever. You know there’s a problem when Kieran Robinson is in your XI, the kid shouldn’t even be playing 1st XI schoolboy cricket. Little brat as well.
Re: Zimbabwe Under 19s in New Zealand 2017
Shite, what’s going to happen against the big guns?
I saw Robinson face a bit of medium pace a while ago and he was not comfortable at all, against someone bowling 140 he’s not going to endure. There’s a few bits and pieces players in there that do a bit of everything moderately well. The most promising batsman (in my opinion) is Shardendorf Jr, and he’s a non traveling reserve and I really don’t understand his omission. He and Myers are the only ones (aged 15/16) that have a realistic chance of batting 1-4 with any degree of authority in the future. Already the window is closing on these two boys because they’re not getting the specialized stuff that the front 4 need, which is constructive ugly throwdowns by an expert. In theory they should be able to bat with some safety against Brent with a side arm and I think he’d kill them both inside of 6 deliveries. Also not sure why the older Shardendorf didn’t play in this game. He must be close to being over age, which has never really troubled ZC before. That’s a disappointing loss after much time and effort was spent on preparation. If they ever read this forum I give them fair warning that if they prepare well for the next WC ( )we will have some good batting prospects.
I’ll pick them so they don’t get confused- Myers, Shardendorf, Bhawa, Welch Jr. This Bhawa boy is going to be a damned good player if he’s coached correctly, at 14 he’s got genuine pace and bats well and has a good cricketing brain.

Oh dear
The Zimbabwe Cricket team have found Ebola in one of their members, but they're not concerned because they have also found Ebatsmen and Efielda!

I am assuming this is the Pakistanis fault?
