Spoke too soon about them finishing the innings though - although very good effort by Chigumbura. Utseya in.

... and Matsikenyeri and Dabengwa out. 8/272 and less than an over to go. Fantastic effort by Zimbabwe! :D

Definitely a defendable score.

Wonderful performance Zimbabwe, led by Chibhabha and Matsikenyeri. We have a game on our hands, the key is to get Chris Gayle early.

I note that five of the current Zim squad (Matsikenyeri, Taibu, Sibanda, Price and Brent) were in the pre-dispute side that played in the last match where Zimbabwe beat the West Indies, in Harare in 2003 (WI won the series 3-2). That's not a bad turnover of players, considering...

They have set a really good total. Chibabha is been batting realy well lately. Matsikenyeri would b relieved he made a score
