Raza completely undone.

Not had a good tour. He was good in the CPL so not sure what's happened since then?

His T20I stats are pretty bad, a Maruma-esque average of 13 :shock:

Raza has never produced in t20’s for Zimbabwe, but for some reason he gets all the t20 cash gigs

Bug chance for Burl to play some sort of innings today, he’s got lots of time. Hasn’t played an attacking shot yet 7 off 8*

Elton finally gets going and then boom, shit shot, game over. Burl is the last hope.

The forums are a good indicator of things. First few matches the threads were busy, now they're just dead.

It's the same old story. We get excited for series and then we get let down big time. The worse thing is that it's the same old issues. We just don't seem to progress. It's all talk about wanting to compete and do well, but when we get on to the field, it's the same bullshit. Poor shot choices, poor fielding, lack of feet movement, can't bowl a good line...all schoolboy error stuff.

We must be the only team that still thinks that T20 is all about go big all the time. We don't think about how to manipulate the ball and how to play to the field settings. That was how Chamu got out. Trying to pull a non pull-able ball. No need for it.

It's all basic errors and this is why we keep being overtaken by teams and sliding down the rankings. To make it worse, we have sub par coaches and selectors who will be safe in their roles no matter what.

Eltons been getting beat by Usman all game and he decides to advance him. Silly stuff. He clearly is the danger bowler, so just work him around for the 1s and 2s and punish the bad ball, then you can unleash on the other guys. It's non thinking cricket and its dumb.

Jesus Qadir is a bit of a find, isn't he?!
He's bowled so nicely in this game. His googly is as good as I have ever seen on international cricket. Better than Kumble's obvious change of action and better than Tahir and Rashid Khan's. Probably on par with Kaneria.
Good find for Pakistan.
Hopefully Ryan Burl can help us limp towards 140?

Is he good or are we making him look good?
The next series he will probably get tonked and dropped

The female commentator just called us West Indies, how out of it has she got to be to not know which teams are playing.
