We now have live scoring

Looks like Price and Chigumbura have been rested for the Eagles after a 12 ODI's in a row which is understandable and Utseya is missing for the Mountainners due to his ankle injury which he has not yet recovered from and Taibu is being rested as his hamstring may not yet be 100%

Nice to see Jarvis in the side :D

And Kudzai Sauramba is making his debut for the mountainners, lets hope the young lad performs well.

Also no Byran Strang or Chris Silverwood but i expect them to play more in the one day format this season particular Strang who would not of had a chance to prove his fitness in a four day game yet

I see that neither Hondo or Silverwood are playing for Eagles, no Mlambo or Nyamuzinga for Mountaineers either, i wonder if Mountaineers are trying out a few young keepers, Katsande made his debut in the last Logan match and now Sauramba in this game, interesting to see if Maudzi can repeat his performance against Rhinos when he scored 100 on debut.

If Maudzi's bio is correct he qualifies for the U19's. It's a surprise that they haven't selected him on the strength of his performances in the Logan Cup. Does anybody know anything about Sauramba?

Jarivs proving a bit expensive here which is a shame but good on young Jethro Maudzi who is currently 35 not out after his debut hundred. He is facing a decent Eagles attack compared to a fairly week Rhinos attack a couple of weeks ago and is showing that hge is one for the future. Why he is not in the under 19 side bemuses me.

Is he defintly Zimbabwean? or have cricinfo got his age wrong? or have the mountaineers called in a few favours? or is he not rated?

So many questions which will never get answered :(

Good work by Gware in the front. Both seamers seen to have been taken for a few. Not sure about Jarvis playing all these games. He really has proved to be a tough bloke. Lets hope he wont be burnt out or get a back injures as was the case for most of our young players. Panyangarara is quick to come to mind.

Not really sure what's going on with the score today, cricinfo show Mountaineers on 176-4 after 51.3 overs with 'Match delayed - Technical problem' on their scorecard

Maudzi 57, Matsikenyeri 43* & Mawoyo 42 - Garwe 2-39

"'Match delayed - Technical problem' on their scorecard" <-------- Hmmm interesting...last time i heard that excuse the scoreboard had stopped working...surely not!!!!

On another issue and I know someone raised it before, is there any info around on getting the new Zim kit? Or even maybe the domestic one day kits for the new franchises?

Mountaineers 291 (51.3 ov)

Another 100 for Matsikenyeri we have to give this guy credit as it looks Campbell has given him a real kick up the backside and it has worked.
