hopefully zim this time around can put good show again, well need to put an extra bowler they can't be dependent too much on part timers need to pur either MPOFU or MARUMA so they can get some wickets for them. i think 5 batsman one wicket kepper batsman one allrounder, price,brent and utesya can also hold bat so its stupid to have tried for so many batters.need really a genuine bowler can get breakthroughs.batters need to be patient. so hope for good show from zim this time around.

Hi guys, you better thank me but ive manage to get hold of a live stream for tomorrows game!

http://livecricket.bollym4u.com/ just scroll down and click zimbabwe vs west indies. However the link wont be live until the coverage starts at 7:00am GMT!

They unfortunatly didnt show the first two but they are going to show the ast 3 which is better than nothing.

As for the game, very important for us to put in a top performance, but as long as i can watch it i dont mind either way.

Lets hope that they bounce back with a win. i wonder if there b any changes, maby Mpofo might come in. I dont think you could drop any of the batsman at the moment even after sunday's game.

Thanks for getting the stream Zimdan b nice to watch the match.

I don't know who Mpofu/Mupariwa would come in for, maybe Dabengwa, although he was a decent bowler on Sunday. I guess you have to go with an unchanged lineup, but we really do need another specialist bowler in the team.

Bad news I'm afraid.
09:15 local time Hello all and welcome to Cricinfo's coverage of the third match of the series between Zimbabwe and West Indies .
Unfortunately news flowing in from the ground at Harare is, there has been a thunderstorm last night and it has been raining steadily ever since. At this point, scheduled start seems highly unlikely

Match was supposed to start a minute ago, so I'm assuming it will become a reduced overs affair (if there is any play at all).

Not necessarily a bad thing, Zimbabwe have a better chance of winning if it was reduced to say, 35 overs apiece. Especially if they are chasing.

Maybe zimdan has some news about the weather.

well unless the power factor of smauel does not come in zim way they will have better chance of winnig reduced game.as gayle is not the the side for the rest of the series.
