Think I’d play the same XI. Bennett is in last chance saloon. Basically has joylord gumbie numbers in ODI from the same amount of games and guys said joylord wasn’t good enough 💁🏻♂️😂

Considering all the chances other players are getting, Bennett is basically a lock until after the World Cup. He’ll come good on this tour imo pitches should suit his game.

Think Bennett is a permanent lock in the side, unless he gets injured
Last game was total crap umpiring

Other formats are relevant as well.
Gumbie's SR is white ball cricket a very relevant factor as well.

That big win almost cements the place in the final but can’t see them changing the side.
Burl is essentially a specialist fielder.

They're just hell bent on not giving Maru a game. What do they see in Tsiga to give him the get go?

Would be a bit harsh to drop Tsiga after one game wouldn't it? I'm curious to see how he goes.

Sure but why even debut him at all when there's a better guy in the ranks in every statistic

We needed that wicket. Brad and Blessing were bleeding runs.

If we don't figure out a way to control those middle overs we could be chasing 320+ here.
