Re: Where should Taylor bat?

I think the fact that he moved down the order and is perfoming there speaks volumes for itself. It will not make much sense for him to open when he has been succesful at 3 and 4. He should continue as long as he is playing so well. If he starts loosing form then we will move him to the top

[Match Thread] Zimbabwe v NewZealand (3rd ODI)

'Queens Sports Club' we hardly ever win anything in Bulawayo. On a flat pitch, we are probably going to chase 350+ or loose with over 10 overs remaining. I would have loved to be positive but when we play at Queens its almost like we are playing away against every touring team. Lets hope i am totaly...

Re: Price v Utseya (in tests)

This debate is fake and it shouldn't get anyone worked up. Price or Prosper or Cremer will be a question before every Test and rightly so. The pitch, the conditions, the opponent will factor into the equation. How do we want to bat, and hence how do we want to bowl. And before anyone says I'm simpl...

Re: [Match Thread] Zimbabwe v Pakistan (1st ODI)

Ive never been one to have a go at our team, but this stratedy is rubbish, we are being so defensive and just looking to contain the batsman rather than getting wickets. Agree with u totaly, we need wickets otherwise the Akmals will hurt us. Utseya is a bit expensive but its good that he got Hafeez...

Re: Price v Utseya (in tests)

Andybligz9 swearing is just not appropriate. Different views should be debated without such unfortunate comments. Price no doubt is a overally a better bowler than Prosper but ever since the IPL he has been bowling way below his average. Prosper has on the other hand been taking wickets and at cruci...

Re: Price v Utseya (in tests)

I dont doubt Price's ability but at the moment he isnt playing well. His dip in form happened just when Utseya has been looking good with both bat & ball. When Price isnt taking wickets we call it team strategy but when it is Prosper- we question his ability as a cricketer. Great players get dropped...

Re: Price v Utseya (in tests)

Then what does Utseya have to do to get into the team? He clearly out perfomed Price since the warm-ups against Aus A. Not long ago we were blaming Utseya for the same reasons that we are praising Price for 'economical but not taking wickets'. With this kind of thinking i wouldnt be surprised to see...

Price v Utseya (in tests)

I know he is number 7 in ODIs, i know he is more experienced but on current form dont u think Utseya should be given a game against NewZealand.

Lamb might have done enough to displace Chigs against the Kiwis especialy on the turning wicket.
