Opening post

It's a shame Mumba got injured. He looked good. Mumba and Blessing are the future. This is why I was saying I honestly don't see Chatara and Jarvis being definite starters in the next 3/4 years in all formats because they just don't have the gas anymore. This kids are bowling at least 10kph faster
Was Mumba able to bowl over 140 consistently? Or just a couple of balls in a spell?

The latter.

He generally bowled in and around the 83-85mph mark on a consistent basis, which is quick enough by Zimbabwe standards

I don't know, I wouldn't be against seeing him in the qualifiers. At least then we have a more than dependable gloveman.

I'm a traditionalist when it comes to keeping wicket. I would rather have somebody who is going to take all the chances that come their way, opposed to a part timer who will score some runs. Had Taylor taken those catches yesterday the game could have been a different story.

Murray seems to have the best of both worlds at this moment in time.


List all respect for Taibu & streak

The Zimbabwe WC qualifer. Squad is a joke

No Sean William No Zhuwao

Room for M Waller & Burl
