Well bowled big Chris 7 wickets is a great achievement

And Bliggie comes to the party! Taibu finally gets back some form with two good knocks and good contribution by Ervine too. This is already looking respectable.

It is looking much better now. Go Bliggie go. Happy birthday Zimbabwe (if i am not too late)

Good stuff ,hope this heats up Big Blig fo the T20 WC,fo Taibu keep the form

[sloandog]

Well batted lads. Excellent contributions from Craig Ervine (58) and Tatenda (59). And some fantastic stroke play from Bliggy. Like you said Flower Power, fingers crossed this is just the beginning

Guys I hate to be negative nancy but lets not go sucking each other off just yet.

This is west indies A. We didnt win

To put it into perspective Bangladesh smashed the real west indies (national team) recently.

This wasnt a good result.

When was the last time these Zim guys last played a four day match against an international opposition . If this was a one dayer or T20 game i would have been worried . Keep smiling coz this is the beginning guys . No panicking . You are going to see the results of these guys playing the four dayer.

I think we need to take into consideration just how average an XI West Indies A fielded. I was disappointed that the spinners, especially Cremer, failed to make any impact on the final day, when chasing that many should have been a real struggle.
