Let him play his game

Big league.
It's not like his career hinges on it, no matter what happens he'll still be around the fringes. But it's been 3 years since he's made a half century and with guys like Musakanda coming through the competition for spots is only going to intensify.
Williams and Waller just need to take it easy and put on a partnership. 5/180 after 40 overs would be a good platform to build from in the final ten.

What was that s**t? Honestly Vandersey was bowling crap at the other end and they could have played an intelligent game. Waller, for that shot alone, must be out of the team. He can't seem to control his instincts and play a waiting game that was extremely important today.
Having said that, every one of the dismissals today was soft. But the Waller one was atrocious.

Waller that was shocking, time to go. Any young batsman we can bring in apart from Ryan Burl if fit?

this old guard of Waller Masakadza and Elton should actually be very worried about their futures with the likes of PJ Musakanda and Burl coming through the system. that shot by Waller is the very reason why I always say let's back the kids and get rid of those guys. they will never learn and they will never change their mentality. they are serial losers who will eventually poison our youngsters positive mindsets. just look at Jongwe.

Your expectation are quite uncertain. Sri Lankans are brought up in the slow spinning tracks, subcontinent teams are best players of spin, they can't be troubled by spin. All that spinners could do is to bowl tight, line & length.
To trouble subcontinent teams, pitches should be green & bowl should swing, just look what Vitori did when the bowl was new, swinging around.
To beat asian subcontinent side from next time, Zimbabwe should prepare green pitches like England did to Sri Lanka
