Its been a fantastic series. I think ZIM were competitive throughout, their batting was brilliant - bowling could do with some improvement.
It obviously meant so much for the people back here in PAK. I would have gone too if there was a match in Karachi.

All in all, a brilliant experience for the fans. #ThankYouZimbabwe.

Agree with the above. Some quality knocks throughout the series from some of the batters, seeing Chigs get his first international 100 was a joy to watch :)

The bowling though was piss poor, needs real looking at. Time for a new bowling coach.

Lets hope for a safe trip home for the lads.

A win here for Zim would have been very useful for Bangladesh.

Quite surprised how well Zim batted here...did not expect that at all sans Taylor and with this heat. Bowling improved a lot in the final game...296-9 is par these days, although maybe not against a team like Pak.

Good to see Coventry and Cremer back. Has Elton turned a new leaf finally? One can only hope.

Glad to have Cremer back, him plus the part timers looks a lot better in our spin department.

Seamers are woeful though.

Conditions weren't good for pace bowling but still the boys need to improve .....

Not having Larry hurt, Mpofu looks toothless with the new ball but seems to have more answers at the death than Tinashe .....

Great to have Cremer back ......

I don't think we need a new bowling coach- that's a bit unfair on Hondo. We do need new pace bowlers though.
Perhaps something for Prosper to work towards.....

Well he's obviously not doing something right.
