The wicket is flat as a pancake though lads, it was always going to be tough

My word what a catch from Taylor, who needs Chakabva.

That was a stunner! Brendan Taylor, take a bow!
Re: [Match Thread] Day Night Pink Ball Test: SA vs Zimbabwe
Taylor really is our best option as test keeper. Great to see Jarvis leading the way with wickets and containing runs.

Woww..what a timely wicket..Dinner will go down well
Re: [Match Thread] Day Night Pink Ball Test: SA vs Zimbabwe
I believe we can get a draw out of this.. once the top6 is done we need to introduce lots of spin.
Taylor is doing well so far. that might he the end of Regis.
if Taylor can keep I think Chamu can be the perfect number 7 in tests. his bowling always creates opportunities. his batting against pace is decent. if we had one more review he would have had a beauty

Firstly ZIM are well in this game. 250-4 is not at all poor Test score line.
Dropping Regis was harsh especially given his gritty knock to draw the Test vs WI.
That being said Regis is not a natural WK. the real Test of a WK skill is how well he keeps to spinners and on a turning pitch with bounce. Keeping to seamers is straightforward.

No doubt the groundstaff will turn the pitch into a minefield just before Zimbabwe come out to bat, that always happens to us.
