I couldn't take my eyes off the match for the last 30 runs or so! It was one of those games where you were 1 or 2 balls away from being dead and buried, but luckily for us we had a superstar at the crease :)

I've only been able to dip into this one - left home this morning with Zim on track for another woeful defeat, and just checked in now to find the Legend has worked his magic again. Suddenly my Monday feels so much better. :)

And the good news is, that puts Zimbabwe back above Ireland in the ODI rankings. Both teams have a rating of 19, which means you recalculate to 3 decimal places to find who's higher:
Ireland: 190 points / 10 matches = 19.000
Zimbabwe: 480 points / 25 matches = 19.200
Ireland: 190 points / 10 matches = 19.000
Zimbabwe: 480 points / 25 matches = 19.200

price you are a legend and i love you
he has singlehandedly helped Zimbabwe turn around there fortunes and start to win and be competitive in the majority of games
only worry is how long will he stay around for

Good result obviously.
The batting is still worryingly far from international standard. Bangladesh are the only international side Zim are likely to bowl out for 120, so the batting has to improve...

ShareWe shud white wash these guys and cement our dominance over BD. Zim shud get used to winning, we have a lot of matches this year against good teams and guys need to know how it feels like to win and dominate.

ShareDamn! it seems like most of you have forgotten Waller, he revived an otherwise dying innings and to do that on Debut on a Asian wicket wicket even the Asians cant play themselves is magnificent. Price , Utseya did well but Waller was incredible

Waller deserves a lot of credit for the win. He stuck around when no other batsman would. Not to mention the fact that this young man can play good cricket! He knows where the boundaries are, and he controlled his aggression. As I said in the other thread, all of his boundaries were risk free.
It was a shame he only got out for 24 - normally for Zimbabwe this would only be a par score, but given the circumstances (he top scored for Zim) his knock was excellent and vital.

Congratulation ZIMBABWE :) Very Well Done!
Raymond Price is a legend,no doubt.I hv a feeling that he will continue taking a good amount of wickets on a regular basis and within a short period of time Pricey will come in top 10 ODI bowler rankings and best spinners rankings.Isnt it? :D This 'Rebel' player is really showing great performance.I reckon,Zimbabwe can call up some more 'Rebel' players like Vermeulen,Rogers,Blignaut,Marillier,Coventry and start their way by beating strong sides consistently.
Congrats to Malcolm Waller....He has scored a good 24 runs.I appreciate that Zimbabwe has dropped Vusimuzi Sibanda.I think,Stuart Matsikenyeri should be dropped also.I watch no sign for him to be a world class player though he made some runs recently.It's better to give players call who can be a world class player in the future like Waller.
I personally dont like the pitch in which the match is playing on.It's really a bowling pitch and runs are very hard to come by.1 fact,the average score of 1st innings in Mirpur in the last 5 ODI's is just 147!The sporting pitch was made in the 1st test between Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka.I want to see this kind of pitch made in Mirpur.
Well,Bangladesh has to work hard to bounce back.Their top order batsmen arent performing especially the openers.I think,in the next match Zunaed Siddique will be dropped and be replaced by Mehrab Jnr.
Again,full marks to Zimbabwe. :D

Thankfully, I was proved wrong in guessing who our next debutant would be. What a mature knock by Waller. Utseya played a great role too. Eddie and Mupariwa were immaculate upfront with the ball too. All we need is someone to fire at the top of the order in the upcoming matches.

I am so happy Zim put up a solid perfomance. Price's bowling 100% spot on, and sum brave batting too. However i am a bit worried about the loss of wickets on our top order, that should be improved with time. And congrats to Malcom Waller, thats a decent score for a debut, and also taking 4 boundaries. He should be able to build up on that.
I think the next series in Kenya should be much easier, and if we play well, we might dish out a clean sweep in Nairobi :D

I thoroughly enjoyed reading reactions of Bangla fans is BanglaCricket forum!!
Right from the word Revenge to Killing Price to giving us test status was great fun.
See what one of them wrote-
"Bangladesh cricket is walking backwards.
Zim should get their Test status back. A country which is in ruins have produced some fighters and we have produced some chickens masquerading as Tigers. They deserve Test status more than us."

Great to see such positive words, i read one guy was asking, "should we deep fry or roast our batsmen?" 😂 😂
