[Match Thread] 3rd ODI (South Africa v Zimbabwe)

Price is great. He acts like a fast bowler even though hes a spinner.

Never a turer word uttered! But he can act like that cos he backs himself with good bowling, no use huffing and puffing while you being pasted all over the ground!

Sad to see Grant Flower and Rainsford out of the playing XI

Zimbabwe team: Masakadza, Taylor, Chibhabha, Taibu, Ervine, Chigumbura, Dabengwa, Utseya, Cremer, Masakadza, Nicolson.

And finally Nicolson gets his chance - ZC probably reading the forum now - our voice is being heard! I have to say though, opening the attack with 2 rookies (Masakadza and Nicolson) is very risky, but experimentation is what we wanted, and thank Butcher for the boldness.... Utseya, Cremer and Dabengwa should slow down the middle overs, hopefully a 2 or 3 wickets along the way. I hope Chigumbura also bowls himself (decently) because if he doesn't, and his under-par performances with the bat continue - he's position in the team will become questionable.

Faith.

According to CricInfo, Rainsford was spotted warming up with Streaky, so seems to have been a last-minute decision on who to play...

Chibhabha bowling - oh dear.

Missing Lamb for his bowling (not batting). Current seamers/medium pacers are a humiliation. 190 of 28 overs giving me throbbing headache. Price where r u????

Taylor dropped a tailor-made chance
