Sri Lankan commentators, who pleaded reasonable doubt when they supported the third umpire's decision, keep harping on about Zimbabwe's missed chances (all only difficult half chances) to assuage their guilt at that rank stinking daylight robbery. :(
I'm at the office and just getting the cricinfo commentary. All these reports of missed chances and dropped catches. Is it really that bad?

Fumbled too many stumping chances. Terrible keeper to spin, in my opinion. His balance is just not right. And he didn't deliver on the batting promise shown in the Logan Cup a few years ago.

I don't know, but we'll never get another Tatenda Taibu.

And currently there is nobody better, certainly not Moor certainly not Mutumbami.

Let's celebrate the dying moments of a great Test match.

Selection fantasies can wait another day.

C'm Bobby, bounce out the tail!
