MATCH THREAD! West Indies vs Zimbabwe 2nd test @ Queens Bulawayo

[TapsC]

Cremer showing he really doesn't have any kind of innovation in him. Why not try other people.. the guys are clearly tired. He is honestly not having a good match as it stands. It happens... this is when Hami or BT need to take charge here

Wheels have totally fallen off now. Come on, try Masakadza or Waller or something.

Around the wicket to Dowrich has been interesting I suppose, but Cremer's just having a bad day - I don't think he'll be able to buy a wicket.

He hasn't bowled great today to be honest. A lot of lose stuff and appears he drenched his hands in butter before the start of play this morning.

What is your all time Zim XI, Hhm?

Arnott
Goodwin
Andy Flower
Houghton
Taibu(wk)
Guy Whittall
Blignaut
Streak
Paul Strang
Panyangara
Olonga

Sorry Grant

Did Arnott go off to Equatorial Guinea or DRC? Where is he these days?

I think it's going to be difficult to bat on by the 5th day.. the ball isn't doing much once it's a bit old but surviving 20 overs of the new ball will be difficult. They are accelerating because they have realized that for them to win they need to finish batting probably today.

come on. Cremer is having a normal day.

Like I said, he's been even more loose before. I've said it many times, when Cremer doesn't take wickets you really feel his being a liability.

He was extremely lucky in the first Test, a bit unfortunate in this one. Otherwise he's been his normal junk bowling half the time.

It's only lately against SL home and away that Cremer has gotten more than his usual 1/2 wickets for plenty runs. Otherwise this is very much standard Cremer.

It will be a miracle if Zimbabwe ever wins a Test match when Cremer is one of it's 3 best bowlers. Mathematically, it's impossible.

Raza's average dropped below 53. It's going back above 55.

Oh look another Cremer rant. Do you have anything worth while to speak about other than your hatred for Cremer..

I think hhm only included Arnott in his list to rile people up, so he'll talk about anything to avoid answering Jemisi's question about Arnott.

Not bad.

Good enough to be ranked number one.

Seam attack has double of express pace and disciplined control. Plus swing from both Streak and Guy. Then proper wicket-taking leg spin.

Genuine batting as deep as 9. Solid and fluid top four. Plenty of running and strike-rotation at 5 and 6. Havoc from 7 to 9.

I'm sorry but not bad doesn't cut it. We're talking dominance and number 1 today here.

I have no idea.
