Re: Post-2007 XI

Terry Duffin in my opinion was a better opening batsman than Chibhabha, Sibanda , Mawoyo & Mire. Chibhabha doesnt even have a 100 in ODI. Sibanda never made most of his opportunities like Hamilton. Mire was a better t20i batsman. He had a good role to play in that 3-2 SL series win in 2017 but nothing after that.
Duffin was recalled for the 2011 ODI WC after Sean Ervine pulled out, Tino Mawoyo replaced Ervine but got injured and Terrence was recalled but didnt feature in the playing XI, maybe due to quota. Greg Lamb was there, Taylor was their no1 batsman, Williams was also good, Ray Price was their left arm spinner, Cremer was their leggie. Raza also missed the cut due to passport issues but I believe if they gave Duffin a few chances, he couldve played a lot longer. He looked a promising left handed batsman, had a technique but kind of didnt make most of his innings even when he was appointed captain.
