A thread for tomorrow's match.
Bat first maybe. Give most of our guys a hit out if we win the toss.
Musekiwa in front of Madhevere is a necessity
Not too many other complaints. Maybe Mavuta for Wellington? Might be unfair as only got one expensive over.
Gambia squad arrived in Kenya late on Sunday night so we do indeed have back to back games Tuesday and Wednesday 😃😃

Madhevere looks s**t. He's going to be out soon.
Literally next ball 😂 😂

Wes has been poor. Madande got a bit lucky with a couple of boundaries as well. Loves that cow corner area, will invent any shot to hit it there.
I hope we don't get bowled out 😂
I could see Raza walking past that, wasn't accepting that ge got a couple of good balls.
Left 70 runs out there.

The emergence of Bennett at the top of the order might have ended Wes' free ride in T20s. Guys at home like Munyonga and Campbell can play the lower order role better than him in this format. Maru can keep and if he gets in he will score big. That's the difference between the 2 of them up the order
The only place I can see him playing is maybe at number 6 or 5 in ODIs. That slot is also in danger once Naqvi gets the greenlight. He is done.

At some point Ngarava and Blesing might realise that if you just bowl wicket to wicket and attack the stumps against these teams you'll get 10 wickets. We wait in hope.
Why is Richard offering width and trying bouncers ffs, just bowl a stock delivery. These batters are literally amateurs.

Jeez. Madande's keeping is all over the place. Marumani did fine in the first two games, why have they switched the gloves?

Clive has to be related to someone. We're going to see him forever. They should see if he can bowl.

He took up keeping relatively late if I recall

I can't watch more of this bowling, it is angering me.
You are not alone there. Zimbabwe just finds new ways to keep your blood boiling. From almost being bowled out to bowling a full 20 overs against Rwanda. Mavuta would have had a field day today.

Completely missed the game today, just saw the scorecard and nothing much to gain here. They just need to tick this box so that they can focus on upcoming international games and then go all out in the Africa qualifiers. Hopefully will thrash both Namibia and Uganda this time.

I watched most of the first innings.
Look i can imagine its hard to be switched on the whole time in games like these.
Most batters went at a decent strike rate.
I wonder in these games if they are trying out certain strategies and seeing how it goes. It may explain why every ball isn't on the stumps.

Wes is the type that does better against better bowling. Sounds dumb but we have guys that can plunder loose bowling but then are clueless against better opposition.
