Here we go, they’ve declared

Can’t see Zimbabwe scoring 272 off 280 balls, let’s just hope they don’t crumble and get bowled out and lose from here

Credit it to the West Indies for trying to win here. The rain will decide in the end

Real shame about the weather. This afternoon could have been a classic.

Assuming the rain wins I think we can be fairly happy with our performance as this is our first test for a couple of years.

Kaia, Ballance, Evans, Mavuta and Wellington put in some decent performances. A one off test starting on Sunday is certainly something to look forward to.

I imagine Ngarvara is injured so TK will come in for him and hopefully Williams in for Chibhabha. I would prefer to see Mutumbambi in for Tsiga but I doubt they will drop him after just the one test.

The amount of logan cup games played by Zimbabwe has improved them as a test side and this is great to see. If you tell me that you take out Raza, Williams, Burl, Blessing, Chakabva from the Zim team and they can still bloody challenge a regular test team like the West Indies, I wouldn't have believed it, but here they are fighting it out.

Good going Zimbabwe!!

So the castle corner guys drove from Harare to BYO for the test match? The guys singing are doing so in Shona and i know a lot of people speak Shona in BYO, but so much so that they sing in Shona in BYO?

Apparently Steve Kirby paid for fuel for a load of the castle corner guys to drive down
