[Match Thread] Zimbabwe v West Indies HSC

[Ming]

Zim win the toss and choose to bat.

Zim wins the toss and BAT FIRST Jesus Christ who does that. Cremer admitted that there we a few times they should have batted first in Byo. You begin to wonder whats the plan here.

There must be big politics there, I think their problems are not dissimilar to ours. They’re missing a couple of brilliant players.

They’re banking on it turning more in the afternoon and posting, but it nips in the morning.

[tawac]

We definitely need to play reasonable cricket in the first hour to avoid loosing too many wickets up front. We have relied to much on Taylor and Raza many runs for us. Its scary to think what happens if they fail.

Batting first hopefully the boys show some smarts and keep wickets in hand

The Windies dropped King Carlos means their batting lineup is a touch short

[tgk]

No Brathwaite for the Windies so their batting is a bit lighter. Bishoo in though, which may or may not be in our favour. It's imperative that Zhuwao pulls off a destructive start for us to win. Spicy match this one will be.

[tgk]

The equation is simple: We win, we in.

Hope has struggled to hit it off the square. I’m not sure why they’d keep him instead of Brathwaite?

He is their keeper

Roach v Zhuwao should be interesting
