By percentage (33.3%) he leads the way, with Streak at 19%.


I was just going to ask that good to see not all wins against BD as well :D :D :D

Still trying to come to terms, this is an awesome feeling. We won more sessions in the series than them. The series is psychologically ours...
Sean Ervine: Great result for @BrendanTaylor86 and the lads. With results on the field time for the ZC board to turn up! #payup #playersfirst #NoExcuses

Definitely. Pakistan had nothing to gain and everything to lose out of this Test series... losing a Test match to Zimbabwe could mean effigy burning, sackings of coaches, captains and God knows what else for them.

Whereas for Zimbabwe, levelling the series and getting a win means the world. This is historic.

Well done Zimmers! Take a couple of bows.

Sensational game and victory!

Don't be greedy with all the new ratings points you boys picked up! Share some with us next time you all tour BD! :D

Party time now though!

If you want to keep listening to analysis - http://www.starfm.co.zw/ - "Saturday Sport" starts in about 45 minutes. I'm betting there'll be a bit of cricket discussion in that programme.

In the meantime, there's some hits from the 80s.
I'm absolutely totally elated! Well done Zimbabwe. Pity the Sri Lanka tour was cancelled.

ZiFM also mentioned the Zimbabwe victory, they said they would be talking to Mark and Dirk for analysis shortly. I assume Dirk is Viljoen, I don't know who Mark is...

Mark Verneulen? Mark Mbofana? Mark Burmester? Mark Dekker?

Fantastic news.

Well done to the lads. Dead proud of you.

Thanks for these and adding to my knowledge that 'Keg & Maidens' have been renamed as 'The Centurion'. But why? Still remember the Brandes Jokes flashing on the big screens of the Keg as well as dishes made on their names
