Zimbabwe have certainly produced some class players well above their mean during their time in Test cricket despite the long-lasting political turmoil in the country, and in fact I think they'd quite hold their own if the other "all-time" teams were restricted to the period since Zimbabwe got Test status. I've always had a strong interest in Zimbabwean cricket so I felt it fitting I ran the voting for this one.
The order I run this voting may seem slightly strange but it'll make sense from a team balance perspective as we get closer.to the final eleven, as I've looked into all the realistic possible combinations.
To start things off I'm asking you to vote for TWO opening bowlers and ONE opening batsman.

Suggested batsmen:
We're only selecting one opening batsman for now because I think the choice of the second will come down to team balance later; someone like Whittall increases his stock as an opener if we need him to be the fifth bowler by that point.
