Re: [Match thread] Only Test - Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh
Superb catch by Taylor, Vitori and Jarvis have looked really good from what I've seen.
Re: [Match thread] Only Test - Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh
Vitori and Jarvis have both looked impressive. They are perhaps bowling one four-ball an over but that is a sign or their inexperience. I don't think we could have asked for a better start from two young pace bowlers on debut.

Yeah, agreed. I am really happy for Vitori, just an absolute dream start to his Test career. Bludgeons a few boundaries and then picks up a few wickets, all in the space of about an hour. Talk about making an impact!eugene wrote:Vitori and Jarvis have both looked impressive. They are perhaps bowling one four-ball an over but that is a sign or their inexperience.

How fast do you reckon these guys are bowling? It's tough to tell without the speed gun, but it looks to me like Jarvis is bowling with some serious speed.

Bowlers going ok, but.... far too many boundaries given away. It seems to be five good balls and one gift every over. Need a little more control to build the pressure on the batsmen.

THere have been 13 4's in the innings so far, that means that 52 runs have come in boundaries. That is a massive percentage on the total, 67 at the moment.

Another wicket before stumps would be good. Maybe it would be worth giving Price a short spell to see if we can make a breakthrough.

Hows Cremer's injury recovery coming along, he can bat pretty well and with the turn the bangladeshi's were getting off the pitch he would have been pretty useful right about now.

Tamim, there may not be any Steyn in Zim ranks but i am sure by now you will not forget a certain Vitori.
we need three wickets in last 18 overs
