Zimbabwe will open the innings with the opening pair of captain Craig Ervine and Brian Bennett in the first Test against South Africa.
Craig Ervine will be partnered by Brian Bennett, who is coming on the back of a century in the four-day Test against England last month, and would hope to keep up the good work in the first Test against South Africa.
Having said that, both batters would also want other batters to contribute although there is not much expierence in the middle order, which can be a cause of concern for the home team.
The opening pair will be followed by a relatively inexperienced middle order with the likes of Nicholas Welch, Takudzwanashe Kaitano, wicketkeeper batter Clive Madande, all of whom haven't played a great deal of Test cricket.
Williams will be supported by all-rounder Wessly Madhevere, who will look to hold one end and help Williams guide Zimbabwe to a challenging total.
Bowlers: Vincent Masekesa, Blessing Muzarabani, Tanaka Chivanga, Trevor Gwandu
Zimbabwe is expected to go into the match against South Africa in Bulawayo with three out-and-out fast bowlers in the form of Blessing Muzarabani, Tanaka Chivanga, and Trevor Gwandu.
One of the decisions that the team management will have to make will be regarding the number of spinners that they would like to play in the first game, as the pitch is expected to be on the drier side.
