I really can't believe the playing 11 of Cricinfo. Cricbuzz shows that Mutizwa has replaced Sibanda, and Cremer and Taibu are playing. That is more believable. Very good selection.


That makes more sense. Maybe Cricinfo hired the writers from the Daily Nation, hence the confusion.

god this is confusing. :) well least its a good start by Zim and Masakadza

Now both Cricinfo and Cricbuzz have silently replaced Mutizwa with Sibanda. :evil:

Is anyone else a bit underwhelmed by this performance so far? First 10 overs or so were good, but the run rate is now under 5 (on track for ~230's), Masakadza getting out when set (he needed to make a century).

Granted we are playing better than we were against Bangladesh, but we need to score 300+ today. A "safe" score in the mid-200's proves nothing. We need a thumping win to earn some respect back after the shocking batting displays recently, and we will only score a thumping win by making a huge total.

Matsikineyri out to A good catch
Masakadza should have gone all the way to 100....lets hope Vusi plays a good innings, im worried about the run-rate now

What kind of an innings was that from Matsikenyeri? Just blew away all the momentum we had. Stage was set for Williams to come at 3 and consolidate.

this run rate is so slow

Mutizwa run out, what a great little knock to start off his career and a face saving partnership between him and Chigumbura, 56 in less than 5 overs.

Another 6 and a superb 28 ball 50 for Chigumbura :D

chigumbura is on fire . That's his 50 well done :D

61 off 30, still 3 overs to go. I'm still not discounting the possibility of 100 here. 😂
ZCF Hall of Famer
love the dreaming think he will miss out on the 100

maybe not as i type another 4

great so see so many of us online for this game

What I'd the re record for

Most 6s in a match by the one player
ZCF Hall of Famer
72 off 35. Please Dabengwa give him the single. 2 overs to go, I still believe in a Chigumbura century.

Highest ODI score is 77*, so that is definitely within reach.

With a bit of luck and help from Dabengwa, he can still get there. 28 needed.

My Word! Dabengwa is in a mood to enjoy himself :D

Dabengwa out for 17 from 5 balls, hopefully the batsmen crossed.

another 6 by chigumbura moves on to 78 his highest score
