West Indies will be on tour of Zimbabwe. Two match series which will start on Saturday. Brendan Taylor cracked a comeback hundred for Mid West Rhinos a few weeks ago and should feel right at home in Zimbabwe's middle order. Jarvis should equally fight back with the new ball, though spin might bring more reward as this match progresses. As such, Tendai Chisoro may be in line for a Test debut to partner Graeme Cremer. Completing Zimbabwe's new look, Solomon Mire is also a very strong contender to debut at the top of the order.
On the other hand, the host West Indies are likely to stick with similar combinations to those used in England, but there will be a greater importance to the performance of their leading spinner, Devendra Bishoo. Their selectors have shown faith in the likes of Kyle Hope and Shane Dowrich despite iffy returns in England, and that faith should extend into the playing XI.
Zimbabwe: Solomon Mire, Hamilton Masakadza, Craig Ervine, Brendan Taylor, Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Regis Chakabva (wk), Graeme Cremer (capt), Tendai Chisoro, Kyle Jarvis, Chris Mpofu.
West Indies: Kraigg Brathwaite, Kieran Powell, Kyle Hope, Shai Hope, Roston Chase, Jermaine Blackwood, Shane Dowrich (wk), Jason Holder (capt), Devendra Bishoo, Kemar Roach, Shannon Gabriel.
