That was a master class in death bowling. Take your hat off to Chris Mpofu! :)

160 was as much as I was willing to believe we could get to. Bobby has just kept that in range.

Great death bowling but why didn't Mpofu run Narine out at the non strikers end there? Where is the killer instinct?

Yes, it was shocking from Pollard too, a Pollard rule must be on its way, a la Finn rule...

Mpofu sympathises with people that need not-outs to boost their average.

The boys need to put upm a better batting performance here. This totally really isnt out of reach. But who shall bring it home for us. Perhaps Ervine and Waller can really earn thier stripes here. But being Zim we all know how much to expect! Not much.

That final Mpofu over has kept us in the game. Awesome stuff.
