[Match Thread] Zim v Pak 1st Test

don't know how I feel about that ... happy with the runs obviously but are they all bad balls?

Haven't been watching for a while; this seems like a pretty good partnership so far.
Only trailing by 133. If these two can get us to a deficit of 75, then surely the rest of the batsmen - and we've still got Mutumbami and Chigumbura to come - can scramble around to level the scores.

Hope Waller gets a really good score today. In the absence of Williams, it's up to him to steady the ship.

Waller seems to be a bit of a ball watcher . Doesn't seem to trust Razas call

Well done Waller, great fifty.

Great 50 by Waller
His next job... to better his highest Test score.

Trail by 110 right now. Credit to Raza too, he's been pretty steady at the other end. A good effort considering he's a naturally aggressive player.

Keep up the good work guys...

that's defo the first target but a lead is vital if we're serious about this game!

good going Waller ...take us past their score now lad

[Jemisi]

Raza has started to adjust. Hope they can continue.

Shock horror, even Hhm is happy with Waller.

Twin spin now; this is probably the true test of our batsmen given our historical troubles against spin bowling. Fortunately there doesn't seem to be tremendous turn yet, but now that I've said that they'll probably start ripping at all angles.
