Anybody been able to divine the Zimbabwe squada?

Also Kenya's leading daily (The same one that regularly forgets to report on local cricket) flew someone down to Joburg to cover THE CHAMPIONS TROPHY! yet there has barely been even a peep about this tour :ranting:

Kenya batting first in the IC Cup match.

17/0 early on.

Slightly altered batting lineup for Kenya it seems.

R.Patel, D.Obuya, C.Obuya, S.Tikolo, M.Ouma (c), A.Obanda, J.Kamande, T.Odoyo, R.Aga, N.Odhiambo, H.Varaiya.

Good to see Patel given a chance. I also agree with Obuya at 3 and Obanda at 6 in the 4 day version of the game.

83/2 at Lunch as Bizarrely Zimbabwe's named captain does not maker the XI:-O

Anyway Peter Ongondo Injured or something?
Also Tatenda Taibu listed in the ODI squad despite being halfway through a 10 match ban:blink:

Some interesting changes to Kenya's line up. Hope Ongondo's omission was not political, though not sure if Baptiste would stand for that. He looked the pick of the seamers in the warm ups.

327/9 would have been well short of what Kenya would have targetted with Tikolo and Ouma at the crease. Hope we can push on to get 350 on day 2...

Ouma and Obanda steadying with a 50 partnership. Will be close if Kenya can set 250 or so as the victory target. 127/4.

Vuuuuuuusssssssiiiiiiii!!

Ups to TT Boy who suggested this would happen if Sibanda played in the Intercontinental Cup, right in the middle of a turgid patch of form as well.

Zim looking dominant with the bat in the first ODI as well.

Some very strange team and bowling slections from Kenya too :confused:

Kenya's team selection makes little to no sense, no Odoyo, no Aga. And it's the same today with Varaiya replacing Kamande in the lineup.

Onyango is lucky to be there. Changes I would make would be swapping Ouma and Patel in the batting order. Bring Luseno in for Onyango and maybe Aga for E.Otieno, despite the fact it is good to see Elijah getting a run.

why Onyango was retained today, god knows. good to see Varaiya back in.

Shameful batting display by all but David Obuya so far. Had he been given some support, Kenya could have gone close to winning this, as is we are staring down the barrel again...

NOT HAPPY

Yep. My sources tell me HSC is a turner and quite Obvliously Kenya have been a spinner short in both matches. Kamande for Onyango and Odoyo for Otieno from here on in IMO

Kenya bowled out entirely by spinners, well if you can call Utseya a spinner.
On a turner

Someone indicated they were targetting a return to test cricket in 2-3 years.

or Luseno for Otieno. Odoyo was injured.
the speedster is the only player not to have a run - waste to take him on tour at his age if not to use him.
Aga needs an opportunity in ODIs too.
