8+3 combination is hurting very much. Time to add an extra spinner in the next test. Part Timers are rubbish.
Lol 6 wickets by the part timers they’re doing fine

The batsman Let Zimbabwe down

what is the need of 8 batsman then ? if 7 fails, 8th won't come and score a double ton

That was nothing short of appauling from Blackwood. Is he just thick? Comes across as somebody who's got a lot of ability but no common sense. Twice in the same game he's been out like that and it's not good.
And on the stroke of lunch, Williams take another :W: Not bad for a part timer

Hopefully we can wipe the tail away and at least grab all 20 wickets

What is the name of that guy who said Williams and Raza are clueless and toothless bowlers? Pariah?

Yep, restricting the Windies to under 300 would be a psychological bonus. I can't watch any of this, but it sounds like a bit of a consolation session.

We'll see how much the pitch is contributing when we bat but all of the bowlers have been disciplined and asking decent questions of the batsmen. But for the drops we might have been almost through them.
