Too much pressure on Gayle. Losing his shape

For those watching it live or on Tv how many supporters are watching at HSC.

Probably 2000 or 3000. It doesn't look to be as many as an international game or the domestic Twenty20 tournaments of past years IMO.

If anything what we have learned so far in this tournament is that only two overseas players max should be allowed per match, including those like Horton, Ballance&Wessels, who play Logan Cup cricket. It's only worth it for ZC/Dominus to waste money on just 5 marquee signings to be spread across the sides like Tait, Nannes, Gayle, ten doeschate & Trego to attract TV, who SHOULD be mature experienced individuals. Otherwise the second guy shouldn't be brought in just for the tournament it should be a suitable guy who's already playing for the Franchise regularly in all formats. No wicket-keepers, and the other nine players should strictly be Zimbabwean(&interested in representing Zim in international cricket!). The reality is our players, including some fringe Zim players, have done just as well, and mostly better than a lot of these second-rate, unknown overseas imports whove needlessly filled the sides!

Hear! hear!...its a travesty that our boys are virtually spectators we understand the marque signings but yes a limit has to be set for our own good.

Poor captaincy and bowling let us down...and yes Smith did his best to lose it for us...and succeded why Horton didnt see he was having an off day begs questions

Guys, what happened? What's the score. With all the golf, premiership games and other cricket Supersport didn't show it.

Cricinfo has also let me down no updates! Stopped at 18th over!

in the same boat with you hhm...I assume Tom (Smith not Cruise) was successful in his mission (impossible...) to sink the mighty Tuskers.. anyone with final score?

City making heavy work of Norwich Gunners cruising ...

Game was called off after 18 overs due to bad light. I think there was 46 needed off the last two.
Trenchard had a few words with Rory brown. Houghton looks shocked! Horton hopeless and he was limping anyway through his innings.

I agree that there should only be two non-Zimbabwean players per side. It is annoying to see our guys not bowling or batting or keeping wicket for that matter.
