233 is chase able and zimbabwean pitches tend to be very good for batting during the second innings as we have seen it during the 2010 tri series :W: :W:

It's a modest target but competitive. As long as Zimbabwe rotate the strike (there's no need for undue risk in this chase) and don't lose early wickets, it should be attainable.

Dont understand why Vusi is opening, he scored runs at number 4 in the World Cup and we move him from that position. I would rather see Hamilton open with Taylor.

Glad to see the two seemers (Meth and Mpofu) out in decent performances, just need Chigumbura to find his form, and if he doesnt his place will be under threat.

Intersting to see that Taylor tossed the ball to Price first up as the first change as in preious years it has allways been Utseya then Price to follow.

Not up with the run rate but still a very respectfull 58-1 after the 15th over

If Mutizwa and Chigs are in form they can give it a good tonk down the order in the closing stages

We should not stumble against this opposition .This Aussie side we are playing looks pretty lightweight

lets hope Mutizwa, Meth and Utseya have had something special for lunch, We will need them if we have any realistic hope of winning this game,

Hamilton masacadza is showing why he should have been in the world cup squad all along, nice little reminder to the selectors
