Gee, reckon that was taking some of leg stump

Amazing spell Blessing. After ages I've been reminded of the old days when Zimbabwe fast bowlers used to bag a handful of wickets, the likes of Heath Streak.

Blessing is the best fast bowler Zimbabwe have produced after Heath Streak.

230 from their last 5 wickets

Now will the batsmen stand up to be counted.

May I know why big guns are not in the team? What's the reason for Campbell to be captain?

Making it to stumps with 9 wickets left and a deficit of 188 is something I'd have taken before the start of the match but when you remember we had them at 31/5 it's a damn shame we're not stomping them hard by now. Regardless, solid batting by Kaitano and Welch so far, hopefully they both kick on tomorrow. Star of the day has to be Blessing, 7 fer to make it into the top 10 list of wicket takers for Zim is a brilliant achievement!
