Mazakadza
Burl
Taylor (Wkt)
Ervine
Williams
Raza
Moor
Mire
Cremer (Cpt)
Vitori
Jarvis

12th Man: Muzarabani

You have Raza, Williams, Mire, Hammie to fill in some overs, as well as three frontline bowlers.

You have firepower at 7 and 8, with Ervine and Williams in the middle to negate the spin. Burl, if he is to bat anywhere, must open.

1. Hammy 2 . Mire 3. Taylor (wk) 4. Ervine 5. Raza 6.williams. 7. Musakanda 8. Cremer 9. Jarvis 10. Vitori 11. Chatara . Can’t think of a better team currently , Williams has to be back . Has proved how valuable he is in the shorter formats with Both bat and ball
Indian and English cricket is a cult and bazball is delusional and embarrassing. Bumrah chucks it, Cummins has a shocking seam position, stokes is a fraud. Bangladesh shouldn’t have test status, Bradman was a coat.Marco Jansen is good, zim will rise !

I can't believe the love for the 8-3 lineup when there was so much hate for it despite the SL series

Putting faith in Burl & Jongwe despite little output

I think after the qualifiers Murray should get the No.7 spot

hhm always led the hate for 8-3, despite being a big fan of it when he first appeared on the scene. He had Taibu batting at 8 in one of his XIs.
