News is that he is has broken a finger and is out for 6 weeks.
Taylor to keep then and hopefully bring in Williams for the 2nd test

Long term? Bangladesh series in sight. Perhaps an opportunity for Mutambami? Cant say he hasn't deserved it.
1. Sibanda 2. Mawoyo 3. Masakadza 4. Taylor 5. Williams 6. Ervine/Waller 7. Mutambami (wkt) 8. Creamer/Mushangwe 9. Jarvis 10. Rainsford 11. Mpofu
Fr the current WI Test , perhaps move Williams higher to 3, to get that LR combo through the order...
1. Sibanda 2. Mawoyo 3. Williams 4. Masakadza 5.Ervine 6. Waller 7. Taylor (wk) 8. Creamer 9. Price 10. Jarvis 11. Mpofu
Dare I say that will have hhm choking on his cuppa 7 whites! Not only that, Waller, Ervine, Taylor, Creamer and Jarvis all in one team, no wonder he hasn't been see around this nick of woods of late!! :D :D

Sad about Regis, I had a lot of hopes about him this series, but no form, and now injury - a very unfulfilled trip for him then.
Williams must be in then, but definitely not at 3. I have been an advocate of him at 3, but looks like he himself is reluctant and looks a timid option at this moment to put him at 3. If selected, hope he goes through the test without getting injured...
My order would be:
Sibanda, Mawoyo, Masakadza, Ervine, Taylor, Williams, Waller, Cremer, Price, Jarvis, Chatara / Mpofu
Cremer has to do much better here though...

Taylor should just keep in all formats, its not like he his scoring runs when he doesn't keep so things can't get that much worse.
My All-time Zimbabwe XI
Neil Johnson, Brendan Taylor, Murray Goodwin, Andy Flower (w), David Houghton, Sean Williams, Heath Streak (c), Andy Blignaut, Paul Strang, Eddo Brandes, Blessing Muzarabani
