Really unusual to not see swing in such overcast and humid conditions.

If he’s 100 not out by the close of play we shall rename him “King” Masvaure :)

Sri Lanka are bowling well, will be interesting to see whether Masvaure and Kasuza can hold their nerve.

He's now surpassed Test great, Terry Duffin :lol:
Remember when they made Duffin the ODI captain on the back of a single Test fifty? :lol:

Yeah it seems simple but effective, it’s has Rabbithole advertising on the YouTube page so I guess it’s their stream?
The stream is managed by Total Sports Marketing (TSM) which is a Bangladeshi company. They have the broadcasting rights for matches from 2015-2023.
But someone said Sony’s had just expired? I’m still no closer to understanding the costs and benefits.

The obvious benefit to ZC is they don't have to pay for television production as the rights have been sold to TSM (albeit for zero as the value of Zimbabwe Cricket is not good).

TSM (until 2019) were using Sony to produce television coverage and to recoup costs/make a profit, they sell broadcast rights to international networks like Supersport or Fox Sports.

Was that a dropped catch off Kasuza?

I'm happy for them to go at 2 an over for as long as they want as long as they don't get out.
Apart from being boring, what’s that achieve? After an hour of fight, a couple of quick wickets (this is zim so it’s likely) and it’s all for nothing.

I think 3 an over is ok though. Easy singles and a boundary every other over.

Prince is a much better player that Duffin in my opinion.
