Zimbabwe emerging vs South africa emerging. First one day match August 13th

Kaitano's wicketkeeping is hilarious But that was a nice one-handed take. Don't think he believed it himself

[zimfan1]

I'd give Musekiwa an over just now. Just to confirm he's going to bowl crap

Eeish this is annoying me.
Faraz bowling 120kph half trackers on 8th stump. Has to be able to land 5 out of 6 on off stump just back of a length or we're wasting time.

Musekiwa is recovering from an Ankle injury. Don't think he is fit to bowl.

[secretzimbo]

Ya he hasn't been bowling in the NPL

This has been an enjoyable series, this South Africa team would beat Namibia, Scotland, USA, UAE etc.

We can match these guys...with more commitment.
It's a game of mm.
They've been better for sure. We've had patches with the bat against quality bowling but we have been unable to put their batters under any scrutiny. They look really good but we can't tell for sure because we give them two boundary balls an over that a village cricketer could put away.
Our bowling is just plain dog shite. Terrible.

The one bowler who lands them doesn't get picked.

Mavuta doesn't currently look like taking a wicket if he were to bowl 100 overs.

I trust he will get one now I've said that though

[secretzimbo]

Sounds like we have an official 'A' series with Afghanistan in Harare at some point, possibly October. Presumably that will be a combination of the better players from this squad and the England shoppers/partygoers? No idea what Afghanistan's 'A' depth is like. I guess much stronger than ours.

Important wicket from Antum. Gives us a tiny sniff.

Not that Welch had any other options, but he's rung the changes and it's bought a couple of wickets.

[Googly]

One LBW not given then one missing given.
Game is still alive...but just.

Falao bowled a better over there. But he's off my list Not impressed with him at all.

Why aren't genuine 'A' team bowlers like Nyauchi, Chivanga, Evans not part of this team? This is a very weak bowling attack.
