12th man: Forster

If Taibu is not fit, Forster comes in and takes the gloves. Chakabva unfortunately doesn't look like international standard imo, so I'd rather give Forster a chance. Craig for me, needs to toughen up and needs to start giving us some big scores. He always seems to find his way to a 30 or 40, but for some reason throws away his wicket. He has the potential to get some big scores, but like all the other batters lacks confidence. I'd have him in my line-up ahead of Waller, but he needs to be reminded that 30s and 40s don't win matches, but 100s do.

What does Meth have to do get a game , I think if he was playing for Mash eagles he would have been picked . (any average or below par Eagles play is getting a chance in the national team .Zhuwawo being a classic example .)

1Taylor, 2Hami, 3Vusi, 4Matsi, 5Taibu, 6Waller/Mutizwa/Coventry, 7Elton, 8Meth, 9Price, 10Jarvis, 1Mpofu!!!

I know they won't pick Ewing, but considering that they pulled a shocker by picking Zhuwawo recently, then maybe Matsi can get a nod (for obvious reasons apart from his form!)
