Zol slices to Masasire who makes a good, professional catch from the bowling of Musoko. :W:

Passi gets a couple an interesting cameo, 24 runs out of 5 balls. Was the last wicket worth it? He takes India to 261/6 in dramatic style. 2 of the sixes were hit high into the air and the wind took it over the boundary and the last 6 was a good shot. India started very well for 20-25 overs, but we came back very well, fought very hard but the last 3 overs or so were costly. But a good showing, we didn't let the heads drop. But 5.24 runrate is way too hard, I don't see us getting it sadly.

What a disastrous last over! :(

The two most useful bowlers only bowled 7 and 4 overs. Huge tactical error there. We could have easily continued with Light for the final over. Lake also must have ideally bowled out. Let us hope we put in a good show with the bat.

Bit of a fight back Lake is in the 90's playing a great knock, outside chance we can do this

Looks like a helf-decent performance in the end, but barring Lake's century the batting again was almost non-existent when the openers went cheaply.

Thanks to Boundary, Crimson et al for your observations.

For those who were watching live, how quick are the Zim pacemen? any 80-85mph bowlers?

Musoko seems to be the quickest of the lot, but as yet not very accurate.

Jongwe was quicker than Musoko, he got it above 84. He was very wild at times though, and rarely bowled in the batsman's half. That said, he is only 17, and batted at 6, so looks to have some potential as an allrounder...
