I see that there is no Ray Price in the Eagles side, anyone know if he's injured or abroad ? No Ryan Butterworth, Doug Hondo, Andrew Hall or Admire Manyumwa either

No Alester Maregwede, Sam Mwakayeni or Tafadzwa Kamungozi for Rocks

Good start for Rocks though at 65-0 from 16 overs, Steve Marillier 40*, Chamu Chibhabha 20*

Douggie's still in the Eagles squad - he gave an interview to the Herald last week about his player/coach role, looks like the emphasis will be more on coach this season. But it does look very much like a second-string Eagles side. Much as I hate to say it, I think Rocks will have a good chance of winning this one.

Indeed a horrible looking Eagles side, if the playing XI of Cricinfo is to be believed. Remember from last season, the names might change anytime . For now, Price's absence is a concern.

I'm an Eagles fan but I am striaght up not feeling this Eagles side at all. It looks very ordinary.

[maehara]

Rocks wobbling - Taibu and Chibhabha gone in the same over. Tino Mutombodzi's doing well for Eagles.

Craig Ervine and Stuey currently in, 162/3 after 42 overs.

[maehara]

Ervine gone for 2, Mutombodzi again. Rocks 166/4.
