Match Thread : Sri Lanka Tour Of Zimbabwe 2020 | 1st Test | Zimbabwe V/s Sri Lanka | Harare

Ya Nyauchi has done well. I don’t get how he’s only low 130’s, he’s tall and athletic and runs in and really lets it go. He’s been really disciplined. I haven’t watched much, I was wondering what his short ball was like.
Who’s this young Shona guy that Sean Bell is talking about? Looks like he’s at some fast bowling academy and bowling quick.

Was Regi's drop bad?

There's no speed guns! That being said, he doesn't look more than a medium fast, but neither is Jarvis or Chatara. Mumba is genuinely quick (high 130s, touching 140) and so was Muzarabani.

No one could have held on to that.

Difficult take but the best keepers would take that. Thing is with Regis is that his batting is a big part of what he has to offer. Guys like the mid west rhinos keeper have got better hands but can't bat as well as him. So when he doesn't score runs he really then needs to take the difficult ones. The big problem is every time he is on his way out of the team he scores a 50. It won't even take 3 months for Murray to take his place next year. I can't wait for that.

The ball popped straight out of his gloves if I saw correctly. It was hit really hard . Maybe it's me just frustrated that his batting is letting us down badly

Just saw the scoreboard just now. It is shocking to see Dickwella at 17 from 47. That's not a guy who usually hangs around. The pitch then is indeed very difficult to get a move on. But they would still be around 150-200 ahead if they keep batting. That is dangerous territory with Zimbabwe Collapse possibilities for tomorrow / last hour of today.

My biggest fear.

Ordinarily, this match is heading for a draw but Zimbabwe can collapse in a heap quickly

The problem is, they declare in 90 minutes from now after a hit out and 150 runs ahead, zim then realise they can’t win the match. Rajput checks his Facebook messenger and sees BRMTs tip to bat slow for the draw and listens.

Zim come to the crease, They hand around a bit, crowd the bat, ball does a bit of this and a bit of that on day 5 and all of a sudden edges and bat pad catches happen and Zim lose by an innings, or Sri Lanka are went in to chase 30 runs as the test match gets d tended by half an hour day 5 to ‘get a result’.
