What was the gist of what he was saying? Was it news on the SL tour or something else?

He was talking about the upcoming tours. He mentioned the Dutch before SL, could not hear much after that. Then something about the academy.

:4: Reverse sweeps his way to victory and moves past SV Carlisle in the record books.

Dominant win though not without a wobble.

Moor still looks like a wicket waiting to happen against the slow men

I think that has to be the title for the next ZCF feature film, the highly anticipated follow up to "The Last Rhodesian".
"Daniel Jakiel -- Yorker King of the Carribean" might have more sex appeal though. I have visions of palms, beaches, rum (okay: spice rum), Johnny Depp as the half-mad fast bowling guru, scantily clad maidens admiring Jakiel's 'bowling action'.

That's more like it! Decent performance today. Our bowling has been pretty good this series, and today it was excellent. Moor is getting better behind the sticks, though far from the finished article, he seems like the sort of bloke who will work hard at his game. Took a great catch off Mpofu, and batted well to see us home. Well played!
Good aggression from Mire as well. He's not going to come off every game, but good to watch when he does.

Bring on Sunday.....

Afghanistan's batting, while far improved from 2010 still has miles to go. Averaged something like 18 runs per wicket at the 2015 world cup where every team was racking up 300+ in their sleep.

Really looks as thougn Zimbabwe's bowling is coming along with Chatara and Ngarava up front and Cremer. Thats 30 solid overs and it isnt just Panyangara or Utseya style containment either.

Every ZIM-AFG series has always been 2-2...4th time running now.

Rumour is that we may play in the euro t20 as Ireland may pull out.
