Hammy enters his most vulnerable period of 65 - 73 and he goes...

Cant bat at five because he is too slow for it and cant open because he's a nervous starter so I don't know...
If he could at least play the new ball he would be perfect for us. He's good when he gets going.

Could someone please tell BT to put his ramp-glide away to balls outside off with a third-man in place? Lucky.

You guys are some of the most fickle blokes I've ever come across.
Ervine to sit out the next game..? Not the force he used to be..? You need to relax. He's just got out for a couple of low scores.
You're as bad as our selectors.
On a more positive note, 161-3 with another 18 to go is a healthy situation to be in for sure. Lets hope we can build on it.

BT is gone. Anything below 300 will be difficult for us to defend. Ervine is really on a bad run he needs something to get him going again.

Waller off with a six. This might just be the ball that gets him off his crisis of confidence. Lol...
Re: [Match Thread]: 2018 Tri-Series Match 2 | Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka
Waller is so agricultural it's unbelievable!

Following recent updates on Cricinfo, it appears as if Waller is trying his best to get the hell out of there but has been unlucky in succeeding so far...
Re: [Match Thread]: 2018 Tri-Series Match 2 | Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka
Ya Waller struggled his way to a decent contribution. Raza looks in a class of his own. This surface has very few demons so it will take a big bowling effort to win this
Re: [Match Thread]: 2018 Tri-Series Match 2 | Zimbabwe vs Sri Lanka
Raza has been in incredible form. I think he is our best player right now.
We need bowling discipline. 290 is not as daunting as it used to be. There was a bit of bounce sometimes. Maybe Blessing can extract that. But for me it's evenly balanced right now. The first 20 overs will tell us all we need to know. Sri Lanka are not that confident right now. A couple of quick wickets and we could win this.
I will say it again that Tari needed to be on this tour. He rotates the strike easily and in Sri Lanka he kept the momentum going. We were finding ourselves 180 for 3 after 30 overs constantly which is good. That's how we were crossing that 300 mark often. His little 30 of 23 balls kinda knocks go a long way
