[Match Thread] Bangladesh v Zimbabwe: 3rd ODI

100 up, Utseya for captain?

He has really be exemplary, average for this year is should be over 25 with his innings today. When I say average, I mean "average average", not when you hit a ton or 2 then ducks afterwards.

Good innings from cremer at least he kept the scoreboard ticking

Agreed. Come to think about it, technically everyone who comes before Cremer is a "better" batsman, all we needed to win this game, was for 1 - 6 to score about 25 runs each. Then the tail could finish off the job, Shingi, Cremer and Utseya perform reasonably well

Shingi now teaching big bro a thing or two! Whats important now is for the guys to bat out the what left of the overs, really behind a win now.

Was rather enjoying the masacadza cameo then

I think Zim needs to really improve in all areas, we have been underperforming and this makes it harder for us to prove to the world that our cricket has moved quite a long way in the past few years. I think results (wins)s peak volumes even if our domestic strucutre and cricket adminstration has "improved" in general skeptics will not take us seriously. hopefully the next few matches we will see an all round performance. with test cricket around the corner and if the performances of this series thus far are anything to go by we have a long way to go. OK "end of drinks break rant"

Bangladesh win the series 4-1...No need to watch the rest of the matches..Zim are being outplayed in every department...

We need some new faces in Zim team..I am only afraid of Dabengwa's return in the next two games...Give butterworth a chance..How bad can he be?

And,i think it is time,chibhabha needs to get dropped..Doesn't perform at all..Unable to give solid starts..
No real score in 50+ ODI's to support his talent..At least guys like coventry,vermulean etc have big scores to show. I know they are no magical guys
but chibhabha isn't doing well either..For me,he has too low average(21) and strike rate(58) and no hundred to show for..At least other guys have some centuries
and good strike rates..

Same thing with Masakadza...Far too inconsistent..I am afraid he will follow on Ashraful's path..
Wasim Jaffer played 31 tests and scored 2 double tons too...But was dropped due to inconsistency despite his proof of talent..He is nowadays nowhere in the openers list for india test team..

There has to be a time when guys who don't score need to be dropped...Doesn't matter if you have talent..If you have real talent,you can come back to cricket like Sourav Ganguly who scored
so many runs after his comeback...

Same thing with taibu and most Zim batters..Very few have class..There is nothing like form..One day they bat like sachin..Other day like Courtney walsh..Horrible thing and its frustrating as a
supporter...really frustrating...

Zim really need to take pressure off their main players...
