Opening post

We have now officially reached the stage where Richie or Timmy could turn themselves into the new forum untouchables in a blink.


"Out of form and can't buy a run? Yeah, but remember that gritty 35 off 65 balls Afghanistan!"

Here's the list of records we don't want to break.

Hopefully we can tick off all of these as the innings progresses, but I'm not overly confident given Maruma is not even off the mark yet and there's no recognised batsmen to come...

80 28.2 2.82 2 v Sri Lanka Dhaka 12 Jan 2009 ODI # 2791

Didn't observe that at all! We already hold the record!

I can't remember exactly when, but I think a few months ago I posted a comparison of us and Bangladesh since our return to Test cricket. And we had none or very few "complete embarassments", scores under 150 or thereabouts. And only a handful this decade in all.

It would be really nice if these two could put on 80 or 90 or so and just make things less of a complete embarrassment.

Chigonka's resignation heralds a new era for Zimbabwe.

This is really like following the score of a typical Rocks' match, Richie apparently batting with ease while everyone around him can't hit it off the square. Do I need to add that despite his heroics the Rocks would inevetably go on to loose?

This series is a complete write off. 2-2 against Afghanistan is shocking. Let the history books record that as being in the Chingoka era :shock:

The new era can start with Zimbabwe's shock Test win against South Africa, further cementing Zimbabwe's position as a titan of Test cricket 8-)
