Zim on track here. Bennett, Curran & even potentially Welch such vital additions to this team for life after Raza, Ervine and Williams. Blessing Muzarabani will hopefully keep them quite competitive. Just need another top seamer to support him and Ngarava.

Trying to work out where Bangladesh are? 4 of their all time top 10 run scorers are playing here. No Tamim, Shakib or Mahmudullah. What are the prospects looking like for you guys? @Aritro @sayon basak

Batting is absolutely fkn dire and at 00s levels of bad. Fast bowling is looking rosey and there's more good ones in recent U/19s teams. Taijul is a gun spinner most of the time. Miraz is average but has his days.

The batting is so bad we're going to lose a lot of matches, but as we've seen, when you've got competent fast bowlers you can win them. Basically we used to have a number of test standard batsmen and hardly ever won against good opposition unless we put out cheat pitches at home because our pace bowling wasn't up to it.

Now we're winning tests away from home and the fast bowlers are taking most of our wickets in a lot of matches. Around those wins we've put in our most humiliating performances in many, many years. Until we find some better batsmen this pattern will continue. I don't think there's any in the pipeline though. It's going to be a wait.

Hamilton & Wellington Masakadza.

Was thinking why the parents made Shingi the odd one out but his middle name is Winston.
