Maybe I meant the titanic Dolphins :oops:

Great win, Matsikenyeri seems to be finding some good form recently :lol:

I've just seen on the ZC site that Sean Williams was missing today after turning his ankle.

It is possible that he damaged ligaments in his ankle and has had x-rays.

This is what we DO NOT want :cry: , hopefully it will only be a strain and not something that will keep him out for very long.

Another win, excellent!

100% record in this tournament at Harare Sports Club by the way... Seeing as Zim will play about 25% of any international cricket they play at this venue, at least this is encouraging... Anyone got a scorecard yet??

Its surprising zim won this match they fielded a team that was missing a few key players like gary sean and vusi.... its a sign that some of the youngsters like Mazurbani and chakabva are doing a decent job for their side which is promising :) lets hope the chevrons can win 1 or 2 more games then it will be a decent effort by them.

The scorecard has finally turned up on cricinfo this morning.

Some good all round bowling figures with nobody getting hit around and Utseya, Price and Muzarabani all under 4 per over. Very strange in a limited overs match that Zim only conceded 2 extras in the entire innings, both wides from Mupariwa.

With Williams out and both Taibu and Masakadza failing, it's good to see that Taylor and Matsikenyeri stood up to be counted, it was also very generous of the Dolphins bowlers to throw in 14 wides.

Hopefully, with a few days break, Williams may be fit again for the next matches. The players are going to be well travelled by next week with the next 3 games in Harare on sunday against Lions, Warriors in East London on tuesday and Cobras in Paarl wednesday.

By the way Utseyalitharan, I love your confidence but with only 8 points, and just 4 games left, I don't think Zim are likely to make it through to the semi finals, if they do then we are in for some great excitement in the next couple of weeks 8-)
