Marillier, Blignaut in Provisional West Indies Squad?

CricInfo are reporting that Doug Marillier and Andy Blignaut have been named in a provisional 30-man squad for Zimbabwe's tour of the West Indies - something of a surprise as, while the return of both men to the Zimbabwe scene is very welcome news, neither has any recent cricketing form on which to base their selection. The full provisional list has yet to be made public.

In related news, Sean Ervine has been signed by Southern Rocks for the remainder of the season, although the player remains unavailable for national selection (he's also currently signed to Hampshire under a Kolpak contract, which precludes international play). Rocks have also signed Australian all-rounder Ian Harvey.
