This is the opportunity Craig Ervine needs to grab.

I agree, to the part about Forster. Ervine I'm afraid has bigger gremlins to deal with.

its is worth mentioning the four of out top batsmen ( in order of importance) taylor,Masacadza,Sibanda and chigumbura were not playing in this match

Still some of the second string are not coming through such as Chakbva. I would love to see a dogfight between Mutizwa and ervine tommorow with both scoring hundreds :D ...as Both are within the pinnacle of being in the squad and are probably one good performance away

Good thing we got rid of 4 guys at the top...another wicket and we should be into the tail. Ideally, I'm looking to see us bat again no later than lunchtime. Hopefully we can bat a good 4 sessions after that which should give us a fair total. I'm willing to give our boys the benefit of the doubt in that first innings 188.

...lets be fair, what did you want him to do, wickets were falling around him, oh yes, attack the bowling, but hang on, you'd be criticising him of carelessness, damned if he does damned he doesn't. I'm not a fan, but some criticism is harsh, he's currently top score of a shameful score card on 17, the second of two (excluding axtras) in double figures and its all his fault! Come on, lets be objective... the whole team has been abismal..end of.

Hello everyone
I am a Bangladeshi fan. The current tour seems to be interesting for both of the teams. Bangladesh showed a pathetic display of batting yesterday. Zimbabwe is following the same pattern. You guys planned to trap us with green and bouncy wicket as we are missing our most experienced two fast bowlers, Mashrafee and Shahadat. But our young bowlers are doing just fine. I really doubt if your management will stick around the plan of using green wicket for the test. What do you think?
