Zimbabwe vs Afghanistan 2nd odi 06/06/2022

You'll look 100 after Australia

Maybe less, but its a strange old game. Our wins come from defending low totals occasionally.

Said it for years, Burl needs to open

Nope we are below Afghanistan in all formats now, I reckon.

Let's see what the Afghan innings brings. It should be an easy chase. I'm somewhat bemused that either Evans or Jongwe weren't given a game. You'd have to think Chivanga and Tiripano or even Chatara are bowling for their spots in the next game, but nothing is a surprise anymore.

I'd like to think selectors know a smidgen, but get vetoed from head office.

Does Klusener now get a say in selection and batting line ups, I wonder?

Ya I'd forgotten about Marumani.

Burl opens. Marumani takes the gloves and bats at 7.

Jongwe or Evans to replace Chivanga or Tiripano depending on who bowls the worst this afternoon. I want to see Evans!!

Shumba will always get axed before Madhevere. He's the poster boy despite having not done enough to justify it.

Just one new face doubles the viewership of this sad saga.

Chakhabva is a liability if he is playing with an injury.

Let marumani have a go. Surely has to be better.

Myers next game for either shumba or madhevere

Most cricketers at some point play with hand injuries. He's not complaining, he's just not doing well. At some point loss of form becomes something else.

Chatara bowled will didn't he? I agree with the other two

First spell he was very good. Second spell and last over were poor.

He is very poor against the quick short stuff, that's been his major weakness. Might be OK against lowly associate teams but will be exposed against decent bowling

I've never seen him against quality bowling. I've seen him having a hack in T20 and looking ordinary, but not in 50 over stuff.

I've seen him struggle against quick short pitched bowling. Would not surprise me if he's the one that turns down the chance to open when asked

😂 ya maybe, don't know the guy. Not many put their hands up to face the fire. Different game up front. U need a big set.

Where u watching. No link yet again. f**k this is so frustrating.
