Young needs another over at Raza and to bowl short and fast. That's what I'd do.

In an ordinary world Maru is running out of time. Needs a score in the next two games I'd think.
So was Wes and he turned it around. But then again Wes could actually get the bat to hit the ball…

Any semblance of good bowling and Raza looks incredibly average. Gets into some weird positions

100%

Right it's time for Munyonga and Musekiwa to show us what they've got.

Heard it here first. Zimbabwe to win on the last ball.

Zimbabwe have an even better record than Australia in final over thrillers. It’s uncanny for one of the smaller teams in world cricket.

They need 40 off 30. Not difficult. Musekiwa with an entirely unnecessary shot. Eeeish . Need 7 an over, it is an easy equation.

Just engage brain and rotate the strike, third man, drop and run and you'll get a bare minimum of 5 an over. Throw in the odd hard run 2 and the bad ball to the boundary and its simple.

Simple with a brain and game awareness. Just very very average batting by most of our guys today. Burl looked in sublime touch and probably got carried away. But he's put his hand up as one of the few guys in the country who can actually find the boundary.
