It's a good experience for the young Mountaineers' attack, but I'd rather Sean Williams was knocking the balls around in BD.

Come on, SM, let's kiss and make up and bring Williams back for the ODI series.

Yep, the selectors can't ignore him now! 8-)
Excellent stuff from Sean. What a good player he is. Mongongo has to fly him to Bangladesh.

Question - What do you think the strongest Tuskers Team is when the internationalists in Chari, Nyumbu, Ervine etc return?

Chari

N Mpofu

Williams

Ervine

Mamhiyo

Mutumbami

Jongwe

Mupariwa

Nyumbu

Shingi

Vitori

Dabengwa

C Mpofu

One could argue the Tuskers line up is stronger with Chari in Bangladesh :P

If he's going to make a return to the Test side, he needs a Chakabva-esque or Vermeulen-esque domestic season. The gamble didn't pay off unfortunately.

Chari is better then Mujuru. He wouldn't get a spot in the Tuskers middle order though.

I've defended his selection, but I need to except that he should go back to the domestic competition to improve his game. :(

Tino Mawoyo seriously has to start scoring some runs again. I have no idea when our next Test is scheduled, but we need his solidity at the top of the order.

A shame about Kasuza's run out.
I don't see Chari or Sibanda solving the opening batsmen issue for Zimbabwe. Mawoyo shouldn't be near the side either based on current form. He just hasn't been the same since he came back from that long injury layoff. I'd like to see Hammy stay where he is but out of necessity he may be the only real option in the near term to open the batting. He comes in at number 3 that early in the innings he may as well be opening.

Yep, Hami and Raza for me and then the four best bats we can put together from FC cricket - Taylor, Williams, Ervine, Chakabva.

Sometimes people lift on the big stage. I think Mawoyo is one of those players - it never hurts to have someone in the team how has a demonstrated ability to make big scores. I think perhaps he should be a Test specialist though as he doesn't seem like a naturally attacking player.

You are right though, it would certainly make his re-selection easier if he scored a few centuries in the Logan Cup.
