I feel Zhuwao would have been useless today facing Naveed..

Would have put Zim under more pressure
Was he fast
Was quick..140 max..Also these are not the conditions Zhuwao would have thrived

THReyre bowlibg great lengths. Not one to hit down the ground. We now need a few boundaries. Not sure where they’re coming from. They’ve taken place off the ball with the slow outfield and no drive balls from the seamers. They’re going to have to walk down the wicket and ramp and paddle just now. Another 2 overs max and then we’re going to have to take some risks.
Yeah but at the end of the day our guys are the so-called professionals and their guys are the part time cabbies, to steal a classic DOGG quote.

We should be treating them with disdain, not pretending they are Starc and Rabada.

Attempted sweep, ended up feathering the glove by the look. Went straight behind the keeper.

So not even a convincing boundary. But still, I reckon we got this..

Only The Lord can save us now. I can’t believe this is occurring

137 from 102 required... you are awfully optimistic. These guys just can't get it away.

I really think Moor needs to sacrifice himself. He's not batting badly, but he's not scoring quickly enough. We need to get Raza in there - a bit of swashbuckling T20 magic from him is our only chance.

Ok I’m calling it. They have to look for some big shots now. At least one an over. They’ve done superbly but have to recognize the moment. If this rate goes to 9 it’s too far.

I'm an optimist mate, always have been. But the more I see cricinfo saying 'Moor, no run' I wonder what the bloody hell is going on over there, and why some shots aren't yet being played.
