[SpitfiresKent]

Shapoor Zadran has been in this situation before, remember vs Scotland at the 2015 WC.

You know what, even if we lose this now, I have a bit of faith restored in our bowling. We've shown some balls here and made these arrogant fuckers sweat! We are one ball away from essentially knocking them out of this CWCQ.

From the ICC commentary: https://www.icc-cricket.com/match/7797#scorecard

The stand at square leg is absolutely jam-packed now, with thousands here dreaming of a Zimbabwe fightback.

Good to see everyone getting behind the team!

Bring on Vitori. He can finish this.

False hope. We ain't getting the last wicket. They'll fluke a few 4s and we'll bowl a nb or two.

If only we'd got another 20 runs. It's still too close to call... come on Vitori/Chatara.

[PSR]

How would it knock Afghanistan out?

[sloandog]

They've lost two and will be on the back foot is what I'm saying

[tawac]

If we had batted out our 50 overs we could have gotten this game. Just one wicket stands in our way.

Yeah, I tend to feel the same way. I've got no idea how good these tail lenders are but I can definitely see some 4's being flukes.

Come on though. Vitori can be the hero here.
