Fair play to Rahmat though, that’s a nailsy innings he’s playing.

Game getting away from us. The only hope is that if these guys can bat, then surely we can.

We really do just get toothless and put of ideas when things don't go out way.

Williams would have bowled them out now if he didn’t have his broken spine to contend with :lol: it will be all down to him to drag the chase over the line. Just wait.

Dion myers should be getting a few overs, something different and give the main guys a rest before the new ball.

Anyone got a link? The facebook one seems to be dead.

One a side note, does anyone get an error message every time they post on the forum, so they have to refresh the page and then it shows the message is posted? I know it will never happen, but would be nice if we got some admin to answer questions and help out here.
😄 don't let the DOG see this!
We're cruising at the moment as a forum and one glitch away from oblivion 😄 There's been no word from Maehara now for a long long time. Assuming nobody knows where he is these days?
It’s all so bizarre. I assume he has annual upkeep fees he pays. Wonder why if he doesn’t care about the place evidently

What I find really depressing is the sinking feeling we will never actually win a test again.

We've dropped so many catches this series. We used to be such a top fielding side, but now we are grade level.

We've let Afghanistan take this one. I hate losing to them

Yeah what’s up with Dion never bowling anymore?

Wow what a turnaround. That is mighty impressive resilience from AFG. A bit reminiscent of the Iris recovery last summer when they were 20 for 5. Zimbabwe's bowling tends to collapse after they get the first 5 cheaply late in the game.
