Zimbabwe are a nice price against West Indies. Although, the Windies have fixed their team somewhat.
However, the best Under 19 cricketer in the World, Braithwaite deserves to finally be given the shot. He scored 80 in Zimbabwe's practice match. Yes, his 80 was against crap bowling, but the guy has scored consistently well over the last 12 months. He needs to be fast tracked to open the batting with Barath in both test cricket and limited overs cricket.
Anyway, Zimbabwe have an alright side and the Windies have made some good changes.
Darren Bravo is in - has been injured the past few months. He's a gun this bloke.
Potential 20/20 team:
Adrian Barath
Andre Fletcher
Denesh Ramdin
Keiron Pollard
Shivnarine Chanderpaul
Darren Bravo
Dwayne Smith
Darren Sammy
Dave Bernard
Sulieman Benn
Kemar Roach
They'll leave out Rampaul and Miller you would think. So that is a much better team and a more well balanced one. Although, I would have preferred Braithwaite in and Holder (gun bowler) to the other fast bowler instead of Bernard's allround skills.
But we know how that team played in Australia - but Gayle was the weak link in the side. So will be interesting to see what happens. Pollard could very well thrash the Zimbabwe attack.
Pollard and Barath should rip apart this attack anyway but I can't help but not be tempted by the Zimbabwe price.
