[MATCH THREAD] 2nd Test Afghanistan v Zimbabwe @Abu Dhabi

[Mr Twig]

What a knock again
100!

These arrogant Afghans should be punished for excessive appealing. They are shouting with no reason and rhyme

Did you see that lbw appeal on Musakanda when the ball pitched about 1.5m outside of leg stump? I couldn't believe they were serious.

The Afghanis basically feel that they are better than us. They've beaten us enough times and qualified for the WC from a non qualifying position. Their players play in top leagues around the world. So they basically don't think that we deserve what we get in terms of funding and our status.

To a degree they have a point when it comes to our board, and when we crumble before them, it reaffirms their belief.

They'll have to bat again.

I don't mind losing in this fashion. At least they didn't fold.

What are our chances of avoiding defeat here?

This is one of the best test innings I've seen, despite the fact that it will be in losing cause.

Brilliant knock Sean Williams, brilliant!

[tgk]

Very proud of Sean, another ton! Go on just need to keep batting for as long as we can.

[sam_ahm]

Afghans may end up bowling a couple of extra overs in the day today. I hope these two can hang on for the day at least.

We've been at 3ish an over this session and we've not lost a wicket so far. Goes to show that block block block is just not viable. Hopefully Prince and co see that, or rather the coaches see it and talk about it to the players.

Oh my god stop fucking screaming every appeal even a monkey could tell that's going down leg
