But Mpofu gets it :) Not really a deserving wicket though...

Need to bring back Jarvis for a short spell now that a wicket has fallen.

The body language of the team is already looking horrible.

Taylor in particular, however we can potentially put that down to frustration.

Yes, an area where we are missing the chirpy Taibu. We can't do this on the first day of a long series. How will they get the enthusiasm back for the rest if the series?

Well... Zim have looked every inch a minnow so far. Unthreatening and inaccurate bowling, and pretty low fielding standards.

That said. Good opening spell from Jarvis, and Mushangwe has bags of potential.

Mpofu is looking seriously average.....what happened to the bowler we saw against India in the tri series in 2010 where his pace was up and was getting some swing. He looks to have gone backwards! He's stopping at the wicket, not driving his head through either :? Come on bobby!

Why is Mpofu bowling short and wide?

Short of a length on a fourth stump line. Bring the keeper into the game...
