194 all out, giving GW a 99-run lead for the 1st innings. Some good work needed by the bowlers now...

Bowlers are doing well: Griqualand West 5/55 (20.0 ov)

Manyumwa 2/5, Garwe 2/29. Lead of 154, 39 overs to go before stumps. Day 3 will be a beauty by the look of it.

As I suggested in the first innings when Kasteni came on, I think Rainsford might be injured, which will be a big blow. Manyumwa has stepped up though which is very good to see; he'd backing up what he showed in the Logan Cup last season. Hopefully Cremer can wrap up the tail after tea.

He hasn't bowled, so you're probably on to something. I hope it is not serious, he'd probably be likely to play in the MTN series.

At 5/55, and Cremer yet to bowl, we are doing quite well. Hopefully the quicks can take a few more wickets without the need to turn to spin, but Cremer could wrap up the tail as you said if need be.

Cremer gets Bossenger in his first over. If Zim keep playing like this, the match could be over quite quickly - as long as Zim don't go to pieces in their second innings...

Cremer comes on straight after tea and takes 3/4. I called it. :P

What a legend. Surely Cremer has to be in the Test team. Surely.

He had an excellent Logan Cup and he's done well in this tournament too. I don't think anyone really knows much about him, though. It'd be interesting to find out what sort of pace he bowled at. His economy rate suggests he is quite the accuracy merchant.

190 to win as Mahwire takes the last wicket.
