...Own destiny...


Zimbabwe and West Indies both are in position to determine their destiny in this WC2026. Every game matters in this phase of the tournament. You have to win at least 2 games with a healthy NRR to get to the next round. This is the proverbial group of death albeit ridiculously featuring all 4 group winners.


Sikanda Raza is someone we know as he is a feature in the CPL. The openers Bennett and Marumani are new to us and so is the 6"8 phenom pacer Blessing Muzarabani.


Looking forward to this game! I like Zim, but somebody will have to pay.


Let's go West Indies!

@CCW

One game at a time. Let us try to win this game first.


So what team do we play? Shepherd or Forde? I like Forde and I think in the long run he will pass up Shepherd. Just needs to work on his bowling outside PP, specifically in the death.


King I am staying with him, hoping that he will come good.

Hope

Hetymeyer

Rutherford

Powell needs a big innings if called upon.

Holder

Chase

Shepherd

Motie

Joseph

Hosein

Unless he was injured not sure Shep is in the running ...surely he would have played against Italy....by the time of Zim match he wouldn't have played fuh 2 weeks....its not as if he's a superstar an being kept under wraps....an even superstars need time in the middle!!

SHep should play because of his experience in INdia
