1st Test | Zimbabwe V/s Pakistan | Harare

[Jemisi]

I'd honestly open with Don and bolster the middle order when all the big names are back. He can't be worse than Prince and KK on current form.

Yeah, it is hard to stick him anywhere else. It probably should have been tried in the Logan cup already to see how he goes against the new ball.

Getting clear why ICC have no interest in lower ranked side playing World Test Championship.

[Bulawayo Boy]

Well......that was shit. No other way to put it really.

What's happened to PJ Moor? Surely he should be in the side?

[Zimco]

He wasn't given a contract I believe so he chose to play this season in Ireland and Ryan Murray works in the UK now.

i thought he refused a contract, as far as i know he was never in it for the money but because he really loved the game? He is off to Ireland now i heard

[Zimco]

Yeah I don't know if he refused or not. Moors family has money, but he still would have wanted consistent cricket and job. I saw an interview of his a few years ago that on of the tuff things for him of playing cricket was that all his friends and family were in full time jobs but he was not consistently in the team.

However things were different before all these injuries of the old guard of Zim but this is somewhat to be expected now with their age.

Maybe its not for the worst, if he gets form and runs in Ireland it will do him and his confidence good.

[secretzimbo]

As has been discussed numerous times, he is in Ireland. ZC asked him to play domestic T20 & Pro50 to find some form and win a place in the national side but he chose to go and play club cricket in Ireland.

Tbf he doesn't get in our first XI. Or close to it.

But with all these injuries he would have been in the squad. He might regret not sticking around.

[Mr Twig]

Dreadful bowling. Don't look like getting a wicket.

[secretzimbo]

Darlington on co-commentary saying Southern Rocks won the Pro50 yesterday. Poor Rhinos!!!

[sloandog]

How cool was that, Taylor speaking shona. Had no idea he could speak another language
