Taylor, Cremer Make Surprise Returns As Zimbabwe Name Squad For Australia ODIs
Harare Sports Club: Zimbabwe will use Australias first ODI visit to Harare in more than a decade as an important marker in their preparations for the 2027 World Cup, with Sikandar Raza taking charge of a 15-member squad that also brings two familiar names back into the fold. Raza has been handed the captaincy for the three-match series in the absence of regular skipper Richard Ngarava, who continues to recover from a lower-back injury. The two sides will meet at Harare Sports Club on September 15, 18 and 20, with the series offering Zimbabwe a chance to measure their developing side against one of the leading teams in world cricket. The most notable feature of the squad, however, is the return of Brendan Taylor and Graeme Cremer. Taylor, 40, is back in the ODI setup after featuring in two matches against Sri Lanka in 2025 following a four-year international hiatus. Zimbabwes second-highest ODI run-scorer, the wicketkeeper-batter is just 81 runs away from overtaking Andy Flower as the countrys leading run-getter in the format. Cremers inclusion is equally significant. The former Zimbabwe captain is set to make his first ODI appearance since 2018, returning to the format after featuring in the countrys T20I setup, including at the T20 World Cup earlier this year. His only previous ODI against Australia came during the 2011 World Cup. The hosts will nevertheless have to cope without several established players. Besides Ngarava, Tendai Chatara is unavailable with an Achilles tendon injury, while Tanaka Chivanga is also sidelined with the same injury. Wicketkeeper-batter Clive Madande, who played in Zimbabwes most recent ODI series against Bangladesh in July, has not been included. Tadiwanashe Marumani provides an alternative wicketkeeping option, while Brian Bennett, Ben Curran and Innocent Kaia are among the principal batting choices alongside Taylor, Raza and Craig Ervine. The bowling attack will be spearheaded by Blessing Muzarabani, with Brad Evans, Newman Nyamhuri and Ernest Masuku providing pace support. Cremer and Wellington Masakadza add specialist spin, while Ryan Burl and Wessly Madhevere strengthen the all-round options. Tadiwanashe Marumani provides an alternative wicketkeeping option, while Brian Bennett, Ben Curran and Innocent Kaia are among the principal batting choices alongside Taylor, Raza and Craig Ervine.

How to create a photo collage on your iPhone for free and with no ads
Macworld A quick and effective way to create a collage from several photos on your iPhone is to use Apples Keynote app. You might be familiar with using Keynote for presentations, but its also good for making collages. Keynote offers up to 100 different templates, though around half of these are only available via the Creator Studio subscription . The paid templates are signified by a small five-petalled flower in the top right-hand corner of the template. Before you choose one of the slides for your photo collage, make sure that Keynote is displaying the slides in the standard 4:3 aspect ratio. The 16:9 aspect ratio option is too elongated for most screens on which youll want to display your collage. How to create a photo collage with Keynote Open the Keynote app and create a new presentation by tapping on one of the templates. We recommend the Photography Bold Photo Essay, or Scrapbook Dark templates. In the blank presentation, tap the rectangle with the plus sign in the bottom-left corner of the screen. The app will now suggest slide templates. There are options featuring two vertical photos, three photos side by side, and a single photo with a caption. For most purposes, such as social media posts, three photos on a single slide are sufficient; more than five are too small and cluttered for quick viewing. Foundry After selecting a slide template, you can select your own images directly from your media library. Tap the plus signs on the slide to select your own images and place them on the slide. Tap the paint brush icon at the top to adjust the background color. You can also change the layout or add a title. Foundry Once youre happy with the collage youve created, you can export it from the Keynote app. To do this, tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner, then tap Export and then Images . You can post the finished collage directly to social media via the Share menu.
