Not a pretty sight to wake up to this morning.

This is shocking,BD will probably declare by tea and we back in the park Batting, on another note the is rain forecast for 2 days but I don’t think even the rain can save

Test cricket can really expose a team. This is brutal.

The 1 thing I don't like about Zimbabwe captains is we never really try anything different. We are being hammered. Give Maruma or Prince the ball. Just 2 overs each. Let's see what happens. 1 is left arm medium,The other a leg spinner. Something we haven't seen in the game. The batsmen can get complacent. Just give it a try

Who'd have thought it'd be Ainsley Ndlovu!

To be fair, with 4 big names missing out (Jarvis, Chatara, Williams, Moor) and with Williams essentially counting as 1.5 to 2 players...this is practically a ZIM A team. On top of that you could possibly add Burl and Cremer. Thats 6 players which is more than half of an XI. This isn't even an A team, its more like a B team or an Academy side.

Mominul not even a double century!

Tatenda Taibu was very active as an administrator, nothing positive from Hamilton Masakadza seems he is an " yes man " to the system.

Zimbabwe might reach lowest ever under Masakadza

The main issue here is we didn’t put enough runs on the board 265 runs is not a good first innings total on this ground the bowlers have no chance on this flat track,Taylor ,Raza and Maruma and chakabva failed us big time,If we had put on 390 in the first innings we would have been in a much better position.

Taylor, Raza and Maruma all had to do more but what do you expect from Chakabva? All he had to bat with was the tail. He came in to bat too late imo, should've been ahead of Maruma.
