Can't blame a guy for hesitating to sign a contract with a corrupt and inept administration.



How dare Williams mess us around and demand things like money and being paid on time.
:lol:

Next thing he'll be expecting ZC to treat him like a human being.

Oh, the mad gaiety of it all
Come on brah, he has been dicking us around for years. Even before this latest excuse/spat.

Taylor moves to his highest. Needs plenty more.

Cremer to 20, his contribution grows.

ZIM have shown excellent resolve. Looks like 350 is a realistic target, even more if luck keeps shining Taylor's way!

Well, it started badly, but 68/2 is not too bad before lunch. BD have challenged us but Taylor has been firm and Cremer is doing a good job holding up the other end. 4 sessions batted for 6 wickets. Pretty good in that sense, but still 15 short of 300. We need a good deal more runs to be in control of things.

Cremer is turning out to be a pretty handy low order man, more than some in the top order. Hope he gets more chances to gain confidence as a bowler

Hopefully scoring some runs will give him some confidence.

Cremer is playing like the competent no. 8 we all knew he could be. Right now it seems his batting is what's kept him in the side, so it would be nice to see him push on towards a fifty.

This tail looks so much better than anything we've seen since the return of Test cricket. It reminds me of the days of Streak, Blignaut and Friend: No openers, one batsman (A. Flower) a few grafters (G. Flower, Carlisle) and a handy tail.

Let's see what they can do with the ball. I got a feeling this wicket will suit Meth.
