Howdy fellas!

Welcome to the match thread.

Use this thread for live discussion, team news, toss chat, selection arguments, tactical genius, tactical nonsense, and the usual match-day suffering.

If you get lost or notice anything broken, please let me know.

Enjoy the game.

EDIT: The UI is still a bit clunky on mobile devices. Improvements will be made soon

Have to imagine there is a fair chance Zimbabwe go in unchanged for this one

We have started worse than the last game. Tough toss to lose

Hopefully I don’t jinx him but if Wes can get past these opening bowlers. I can see him making a nice score.

Curran continues to just be consistent.

Craig Ervine gets bowled 2 games in a row. Looks like he's not seeing it like he used to.

What was that from Wes? 😡

He moved his feet well and just chipped it to him.

Well done Curran

Gutsy innings from Ben Curran. Hope he kicks on.

Wes needs to do better with the chances he's getting. Curran looks so solid, though he needs a better partner. Bennett should move down to 4 at this point and take Ervine's place
Not a Zimbabwean, a massive cricket fan and longtime lurker on the old ZCF

Would 250 be to greedy to ask for?

Big opportunity for Madande to silence his doubters.

I would say Maru will be coming in for the next game.
And bring in Burl of Ervine

We probably need to move on from Ervine and Raza, but I feel that the selectors are not smart enough. They are only thinking short term. We can't keep persisting with the same old same old. There's a few in the team and in the T20 selection too.

I worry we'll go into the WC with a fair few passengers.

They will really need to be blooding a few before the next World Cup.

I’m fine with Raza and an in form Ervine in the squad but they can’t always be first on the team sheet.

It seems none of our ODI wicket keepers can bat.

May not be a bad idea to bring Taruvinga into to the fold.

100 for Ben Curran! He obviously needs to carry his bat now.

Well batted Curran.

Newman and Ritchie are capable of hitting the ball so no reason for them not to really attack the last four overs.

Well done Curran!
