Well done Pro :W: :W: :W:

The only bad thing about watching Pro bowl so well is that Ajmal will bowl twice as good ......

off-spinners in general :) that'd be an odd group of people to press the 'dislike' button on :D
:W: bit worrying that low spin from Prosper ... common boys! looking well forward to the chase now

Our lack of a spinner who can take advantage of this pitch is killing us. Prosper has bowled well but he is never going to run through a side like Ajmal can.

I'm so impressed with Panyangara I really liked him when he was a youngster but I will admit I thought he was a spent force now a days but Im glad to say I was very wrong ......

Good to see Utseya getting some turn, but it's a bad sign for Zimbabwe batsmen.

By the way, who else feels like buying a can of Fogg or Vi-John?

Yeah, Cremer is definitely a more suitable Test spinner. But Utseya is the best we have in the current situation.

Looks like they are going to have a crack at Zimbabwe before stumps. What do you reckon, they'll declare around 280?

we can ill-afford to have a spinner who has to wait 4 days to get a bowl though ... Prosper bowled sufficiently well in the first innings and has taken quite good advantage since it started playing up I thought
