Zimbabwe vs West Indies - ODI Series

[aussie1st]

There could be a number of players rested after they win the series so it's a tricky one.

 

[viral1991]

I have Bravo as skip, and my team is pretty balanced!

 

[jdbais]

It's never a bad idea to have an all-rounder as captain IMO.

 

[sid_19840]

I have Lara as captain as Im pretty certain that he'll play as captain.

 

[ZexyZahid]

It seems now to better have a mix of the West Indies and Zimbabwe players. I put a lot of Australian players in the first Test match of Bangladesh and Australia and it didn't work out well then. Maybe it would be smart to do the same as well now.

nothing to choose from the zimbabwe side cuz u dont know which one is going to play and which one is not, only single or couple of selections, and i got one zimbabwe player too but dont know who is that guy and will he play or not and gayle is my captain and lara as bonus player.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Not a great start. I've got Piet Rinke in my team and he is out for one run. And that by Jerome Taylor and I don't understand why Jerome Taylor is playing instead of Corey Collymore.

And I see some other people have got Brendan Taylor in their team too.

 

[y2j826]

first qquestion is that why bradshaw is not bowling the opening spell, he can pick some wickets at the beginning of the innings.

 

[ZexyZahid]

This is unexpected. Chibhabha made 45 runs and is still not out. Somebody has him?

Gayle got two wickets in four balls in one over. That changes things a lot.

 

[aussie1st]

Good start so far, captain did well, picked Utseya now if only I had kept Smith.

 

[ZexyZahid]

A lot of people have Gayle as captain. The scores will be pretty close.

 

[aussie1st]

Well Utseya did quite a bit that game so the gap would be about 100.

Update after the 1st ODI: http://usa.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2006/ZIM_IN_WI/SCORECARDS/ZIM_WI_ODI1_29APR2006.html

I didn't expect to be that low. Already a difference of 137 points with the top.

[aussie1st]

Sureshot out in front again, he seems to be in a hot streak.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I don't understand why Denesh Ramdin batted so high. He normally comes just before the bowlers. That's why I chose Taylor instead of him.

Top 3 doesn't have Collymore. Let's hope he will play tomorrow.
