Taibue(The clueless captain)

I am really disappointed they way he has lead the zimbabwean side,It was absloute carnage from the new zealanders to say the least,Around 20 fours were hit in the off side region and taibue wasnt even doing anything about it,he should have a fielder cover the boundry in the off side rather then keeping all the fielders inside the cricle in last 10 overs,.

I really do feel sorry for him at the same time he is just a young man who is clue less,I am hoping that zimbabwe will make a strong come back againts India,

I really feel sorry for the players in the zimbabwean side,They are facing the worst days of their lives,Some of them have lost their houses moved to a different country etc,

I want zimbabwe to come back strongly I really want them to do well,

Public schoolboy cricketing nation, with a few talented club standard fellows thrown in, always been the Zim way. Why so surprised?

yeah, I feel sorry for them too. IT is really unfortunate to see a once good side to come down to this level.

Just because they're white doesnt autonatically mean they're great cricketers. IMO, its a grass roots problem. Theyre not developing enough talent and the governments policies are also pi$$ing off potential talents from taking to the game whole heartedly.

One solution:

Merge Zimbabwe and Kenya into one East African team.

The West Indies have been playing as a multi national team for decades now.

That's actually not a bad idea. You could bet anything Mugabe wouldn't even think about it, though.

Taibu really is one of the better players of the team, it's just a pity everyone else is so crap

Yeah I guess it's a possibility but as one the situation may get worse. KCA is charged with corruption and together two African govts may cause conflicting views and cause political problems.
Nice idea though but I don't think it would work out practically. Also the pride for playing for one's on country is unmatched so the players may not be as motivated as if it was just for their own country. West Indies are great example of how it could work though
