He's said a lot of good stuff about ZC whilst on air in this tournament. He was around for the West Indies/Zimbabwe series late last year and probably watched a lot of our guys train, play etc.

Yep he’s my favourite by far , has a laugh but knows the game inside out plus his calypso accent is awesome
Indian and English cricket is a cult and bazball is delusional and embarrassing. Bumrah chucks it, Cummins has a shocking seam position, stokes is a fraud. Bangladesh shouldn’t have test status, Bradman was a coat.Marco Jansen is good, zim will rise !

We need to hold wickets for the last 10 overs they’re going to need to bowl Nurse 4 more at least, we need to make sure we have BT & Raza waiting for him

Take CZ’s wicket. They would have been playing and practicing on slower decks and then they walk out there and it’s fizzing. Big adjustment. But I’m sure they would have been expecting it after pitch inspection. I reckon we need 300, unless WI choke. Pitches here change a lot throughout the course of the day.

Surely if the pitch is moving and doing something we should have noticed that at pitch inspection and gone in with the third seamer.

Mark Butcher earlier on said that this Zimbabwe side is 'dangerous'. Got a bit of a buzz when I heard that. When was the last time we were referred to as a dangerous unit?

Roach is a world class bowler for sure. A real handful.

Yea was thinking that, but maybe Cremer/Streak thought it would ruff up and slow down as the day goes on.
Looks to be having the opposite effect at the moment though hey :roll:
