DLS will surely add to whatever score Zimbabwe get here because they started the innings thinking of this as a 50 over game.
That is only if Zimbabweans don't get all out . Even if they lose 8-9 wickets increase in run will be very nominal

Something very drastic needs to happen with our batting very quickly. Along the lines of significant investment in specialist or consultant batting coaches, bowling machines or something else. I don’t know.

But some of these guys really are the best players in the country and yet when they pull on a national jersey they don’t appear to know how to hold a bat suddenly.

Yeah right Tej. If they get to 200 , I think there can be a chance to get some early wickets and get in the game. I would have liked 225 but that's not happening.

Reduced overs will work in our favour though . We would have anyway not played entire quota and would have made the same score . Atleast Ireland will now have 10 less overs to chase similar score
