[Match Thread]: 2018 Tri-Series Match 1 | Zimbabwe vs Bangladesh

[CrimsonAvenger]

Shocking! Shocking start for Mire

[CrimsonAvenger]

This is worse than the worst nightmares. Disaster.

Come back to my computer after missing the first ball and its 1/2 off 0.1, who else but Zim, serious trouble here, time for the two most experienced batsman to put a partnership together

[CrimsonAvenger]

Bangladeshis clearly know how to blunt our opening flurry. Spin at both ends

[Black Mamba]

Streak proved, he knows the condition well and will be the spinning track

[CrimsonAvenger]

This might actually work in Taylor's favor. His lack of footwork won't get exposed as he starts against spinners and he will have time to settle down. Could well be the platform he needs to get some confidence that augurs well for the rest of the series. He is one innings away from getting his feet moving well.

If I was Mashrafe, I would have brought myself on from one of the ends to target Taylor's footwork. He's already looking decent now.

[Conant]

Our best player of spin chirps a medium pacer straight to mid on.

Solomon Mire in Dhaka but still in bed in Harare having just woken up from a deep slumber after having sex with last night.

Hamilton hoists to the keeper.

Horror start. Hope we can get to 150.

[CrimsonAvenger]

Did that really take the edge? Oh yes, it did...

[Kriterion_BD]

That Masakadza wicket was totally against the run of play.

No demons on this pitch. Although it seems to be holding up quite a bit. I reckon Raza will be a handful on this surface.

Nothing special about any of the Bangladeshi bowlers , just need a big partnership. I’m confident of our bowlers doing the job here.
