Re: 3rd ODI | Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe | ODI Super League
Regis' keeping has been absolutely imperious this series so far. Really gone up a level.

Unless we get two quick wickets is gone.
Need to be 5/200
As I said a few pages back,
I wish the fans understood that when when we start batting suspiciously well out of the blue, it’s not because we all started to lift at once despite history…. It’s because of the pitch and you can expect the bowlers to struggle.
Just like what’s happening.
The same logic occurs in reverse. Like when everyone was ‘amazed’ we kept SA restrained in the day night test first innings.

Exactly. When do we ever bat well on a poor pitch? We score 350, that means the opposition will probably score 375.ZIMDOGGY wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 1:24 pmUnless we get two quick wickets is gone.

Re: 3rd ODI | Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe | ODI Super League
Which makes it a game of fine margins. This is when you need the skill and consistency to win games. Good teams will get those extra runs and those extra wickets to win games. Cause I was thinking even with Williams and Ervine in, we were still going to end up with more or less the same score on this wicket. But then we lack genuine wicket taker who can bowl well on batting wicket. But these are the players we have and that is why you cannot afford to have weak coaches because such players really need a lot of hand holding and spoon feeding to actually know what they need to do throughout the match.eugene wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 1:29 pmExactly.

Re: 3rd ODI | Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe | ODI Super League
Tbf I don't think the pitch is as great as you say. I still think its 280 par, so we batted pretty well all things considered. It's always harder to bat in the mornings at HSC this time of year as well.ZIMDOGGY wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 1:24 pmUnless we get two quick wickets is gone.

But the bowling from the seamers has been absolutely apocalyptically bad today. We really should be able to defend that score on this pitch at home, with our first choice bowling attack available.

This match is reminding me of the match where Charles Coventry took 194 runs. Decent total but Tamim Iqbal stream rolled Zimbabwe.

A coach is not here to find players all through a 3 year contract. You have to win with what you have else you are not good enough as a coach. The team already looks defeated at this stage and that is where the skillful coach comes in, with ideas and messages from the dressing room.

Zimbos need 4 quick wickets

Re: 3rd ODI | Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe | ODI Super League
Chatara has been rubbish, I think he need to start looking at retirement and give another bowlers a chance , the question is who?
That Chivanga guys is blowing hot and cold raw pac but can’t get wickets.
We need a something special here ,they cannot leave it all to Blessing to do the bowling we needs good seam bowling paternership
