[Match Thread] Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 2nd Test, Dhaka
Re: [Match Thread] Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 2nd Test, Dhaka
Mavuta is not an allrounder. He might think he is but he isnt. I knew Bangladesh would be the real test for him. He still has a long way to go
Re: [Match Thread] Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 2nd Test, Dhaka
He should be nowhere near a Zimbabwe shirt. That was disgraceful.
Re: [Match Thread] Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe, 2nd Test, Dhaka
Yes, some needless running and poor shot selection there. Still it is a drawn series though, Zimbabwe will take heart from that.
The next assignment is after a bit of a break, scheduled for March against India. We are likely to.push the IPL ahead by a week to help players prepare for the WC, which means that Zimbabwe series should happen early march.
It will be quite a crunched schedule I guess, we are hosting Aus for 5 ODIs and 2 T20s followed by Zim for a test and 3 ODIs, all in a space of some 40 days.

You keep saying 'One swallow doesn't make a summer' but the facts are Regis has missed multiple chances of the spinners in the Sri Lanka Test, the Windies series and now the Bangladesh tour, for a side like Zimbabwe who need to make every chance count they can't afford their keeper to miss so many chances.
Are you accusing me of being biased??
Tell me Conant how many Top 4 batsman keep wicket in Test cricket ???? Please tell me??? The answer is none because you don't want your premier batsman having to spend 150 overs crouching then trying to bat for 3 hours.
Rahim, ABDV, Andy Flower, McCullum, Sanga and even Taibu have all either given up the gloves or moved down the order at some point as they try to juggle both responsibilities. They obviously want to keep BT in the top 4 so Regis is the next best 'keeper batsman'.

But yes his shot in the first innings so close to stumps and the run-out were awful
In the end I think the boys did ok considering they lost the toss, lost Chatara and all their spinners had shockers.
From what Mehlui Sibanda said on twitter the India series will be hosted by Zimbabwe now and will likely be just ODI's
The Afghanistan series has been deferred to 2020
He also said Zimbabwe won't host any series which will cost them money so there is a good chance the Windies tour will be also be deferred or shortened
2019 looks to be a very quiet year for Zimbabwe

Disappointed at how this ended. At least we can finally put some points on the rankings table. That was becoming embarrasing.
Hope the boys get a week off and then straight to the domestic competition. They must remember that this is a fulltime job. A lot of them didnt play any cricket from April to September. There is no excuse to not play for your franchize. Since ZC controls everything I would have made sure that there are attendance clauses for things like franchize and even club cricket. This habit of skipping domestic matches must end. This is why they always look undercooked at the beginning of every series.

Minister Coventry needs to get hold of Hamilton to pass on her congratulations to BT for his back to back hundreds, unofficially of course!

This has the potential to be the best domestic season for while
