The ball that Ngarava bowled to bowl Tucker, it was 140KMPH, is he the fastest bowler Zimbabwe have produced after Andy Blignaut?
I'm pretty sure Chatara bowled 144 kph at his peak prowess in the 2015 CWC. He bowled quite a few over 140 kph back then.

Just want to put on the record my utter disdain for the fact we still have green helmets, along with the bright yellow shirt and red trousers ffs. THREE clashing colours!!!! If we really must have a bright yellow shirt and bright red trousers, can we not at least have maybe red helmets so there is at least some degree of co-ordination and matching?

We need Ireland to beat Scotland which will help us if Friday is washed out.

Yes I can already envision NRR coming back to bite Zimbabwe, should have really finished off the Irish much earlier.

Yeah we did. It blended in well with the full red kit. We also did have red and green helmets together at one point. I like the Green helmets, they are simpler and more relaxed, so ball doesn't get lost in them.

Our kits have just been trash all around, and a we need a new kit supplier. Go back to our normal colours. Not sure where the yellow has crept in to be our dominant colour.

It was the 2014 tour of Bangladesh and Chatara bowled 144.5 or 144.8, I think it was the former because it was just under 90 mph and I think 144.8 is past 90 mph.

I think Chivanga reached 145 recently.

Dutch going to beat Namibia, which is a terrible result for SL.

If both SL and WI go out it will be absolutely hilarious :lol:

This world cup is just stupid competitive. Ideally for SL, we want Netherlands to beat the Namibians in a close match and then hammer UAE by 50 before beating the Dutch. But thats a crazy combination especially since we need no rain

Actually the netherlands properly messed that up at the end. Puts SL in a decent position still. Win both remaining matches by about 20 runs or so each and SL go through.
