Chatara needs to be dropped
He needs to show why he's there. Bowling that dross at the end does not wash with me at all. It looked like he was just running up and hoping for the best. Really was a disgrace seeing waist high full tosses being tonked for 6, and then over stepping the line three times in an over.

With the new ball he's very good as he clearly bowls a heavy ball. But at the death :? Jesus, keep him away. Jarvis wasn't much better either! At least Vitori bowled full and fast. All these length slower balls are just asking to be hit. They're creeping into Panyangara territory; great with the new pip, chronic at the death

I predict Zimbabwe to be dismissed for 180 or so.

One bloody bad over and people bring guillotine for Chatara. Sad.

Not the best of days out there, but there is always the second half.

Can my mate Ryan Burl do some damage up top

He bowled terribly though. That kind of bowling can't go undiscussed or criticized

4 no balls in one over . I think chatara was approached to ball deliberate no balls

Agreed. Must be criticized. But dropping him for that? We won our last ODI due to his death bowling...

The one against SL in the first match of the tri-series.

Plus his death bowling in the last T20 was exceptional.
