[Match Thread] West Indies v Zimbabwe (World Cup Pool B)

Chigumbura should give it up. That was hopeless, just rubbish.
Unless he can reinvent himself as an upper middle order batsman his position is surely untenable, given Mire seems to be better in all departments.

Great, Kamungozi on now. Odds on 36 run over?

i wouldn't be surprised if Gayle breaks R.Sharma's record today

Chigumbura has bowled more in this world cup than in the domestic season. He hardly bowls at all. If his not contributing with the bat as well than truly whats his role in the team.

this is just preposterous!

Here's a thought. This is just a nightmare. We'll soon wake up and realize that the whole match is washed away due to rain...

This match can't even help in damage limitation anymore

whose idea was it to bring spinners on at this stage of the match with gayle batting

Embarrassing.

Bowling Kamungozi and Williams just ludacris

[CrimsonAvenger]

Just can't blame Chigs the skipper much today, I think. Just following on Cricinfo, but I thought he did well most of the time with bowling changes - but he can't do much if Taffy went for plenty in his first spell. Only thing could have been bringing back Williams and Taffy for another spell earlier than that. By the time he brought them on, he really had no choice to finish the 50 over quota. The Matsi selection I thought was specifically to get some spin from him. Strange he did not bowl at all. No golden arm effect today too

Chigs the bowler though, less said the better...

i think mire's hamstring injury has disturbed the balance of the squad

i think this sums it up
