4th day should be interesting tussle between these two team. Chibhabha looks well set for a big score and Mpofu will be asking lot of questions.

Ok as I type Chibhabha is gone early. Disappointing. Tuskers should have this rapped up by lunch.

Chamu gone none of the Contenders for an opening spot did anything this round.

Lends more weight to the idea of Burl & Hami opening against the Windies

Does anyone know why Elton Chigumbura isn’t playing ?

I also wonder what happened to Elton.. he doesn't seem motivated to make a comeback at all. I heard he has a thriving pig farm. Maybe he just doesn't care anymore since he lost his national contract. I think he can still Make a contribution.

Regis is fighting. It's crazy what competition can do to people. Richmond really made a statement. Regis knows he absolutely has to score big.

With Ndlovu mysteriously absent with the ball in the second dig, will Tuskers run out of time here? One can criticize Mutumbami for a late declaration, but he has given his bowlers enough time and overs. They need to deliver. Musoko is no mug with the bat and he is sticking around nicely so far.

Well, they have done it. A hard fought win and they had to earn it. Good couple of matches to begin the season.

Lot of bowling for Williams and Raza, preparing them up for what awaits them against the WI I guess.

Chakbva vs Mutumbami debate getting some steam.

Plenty of frontline Eagles players are missing. Not just Elton.

I think there's a bigger story here. I'll be watching the Goats closely.

What other starters are the Eagles missing. I know they have lost Burl and Raza but cant really think of any standout performers from last season not getting a gig?

Hhm thinks some senior players are striking for some unknown reason

Fact Elton & Tinashe were just overlooked

Yeah, would love to know who those plenty of frontline Eagles players missing were.
