Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | 2nd ODI | 16 February 2025

Re: Zimbabwe vs Ireland | 2nd ODI | 16 February 2025

I wonder, do we have a statistical analyst who researches oppo players before and works out, for example, batsmen's weaknesses so that we can bowl to a plan?

Or do we just go out and bowl...or bat for that matter?

Why do we have such issues with wides

Fatigue

Poor discipline

I'd say that it's probably poor or insufficient coaching.

Not at all SZ. I think your summary is sport on. Good, planning, preparation and leadership from board level down is needed.
