Great win for Zimbabwe, not sure I agreed with Williams blocking out 5 balls at the end but it was great to see Vusi returning to form with a century.

Oh look, I think it was fair enough. There were 4 overs to go and 7 wickets in hand... it wasn't really that tight, there was no risk involved. Williams did the right thing I reckon. So did the umpires.
Sometimes individual milestones can be worth as much as a good team effort. Now that Sibanda has finally made a century, that psychological block he's had might be gone.

There were so many balls remaining - Vusi really needed it, so did the team.

vusi was his own worst enemy. guy was shitting himself. it was painful to look at his face poor guy.

he really needs a sport psychologist.

yes, as my predictive post suggested I thought he'd bottle it .. he didn't though, and that in itself may waylay the need for a psychologist for now
