This is just awful

Matsikinyire may just be the man to deliver Zim to the final wouldnt that be fitting!

Cremer isn't all that bad with the bat

My understanding is that South Africa need to chase down this total in just over 15 overs for Zimbabwe to be eliminated. That's a run rate of about 8.2.

Thats very achievable for this SA squad. Cricinfo make it seem as if we are already in the final and have no chance of being knocked out.

I guess the only plus side is that because they are chasing there's no undue pressure for them to try and clear the ropes off every ball. But having said that, I'm not sure why Cricinfo would assume it will be a Zimbabwe vs South Africa final. If Levi or Amla get in, or someone like Albie Morkel gets promoted up the order, then 8 an over is not going to be a problem.

Its going to take creamer best bowling today. early wickets will be the key

That goes a long way in helping! Great catch by Taylor. Amla gone.

Just looking at the movement Jarvis got then, I'm wondering if a slip might be a good idea?
