Murray should bowl an over.
We’ve experienced every other humiliation, has this been done before? Keeper takes his pads off and bowls a 10 over spell and takes 3 wickets.

I think Taibu did that in the bad old days of 2004-05ish. And I think he actually did take a few wickets...

This senseless slaughter is doing nothing for anyone, not even Pakistan. Why did ZC even organise this series? It's completely and utterly humiliating.

ZC won't mind though, it's the players and coaches fault - not theirs.

[Detective RDS]

Wellington Masakadza gets a wicket.

[Googly]

The world must see. They’re incapable of embarrassment, it’s not an emotion they are familiar with, but the damage to ZC is monumental and no spin doctoring will soften the blow.
At the end of play today this may be the biggest series defeat in ODI history, that surely has to be on a par with non qualification?
If we get to see the back of Utseya and his cronies it’s money well spent. They need to apply consistency and they must fire the technical staff and the captain, it’s going to be interesting watching them make an excuse for not doing so.

[TapsC]

The scary part here is that we are only missing 2 bowlers. Cremer and Jarvis.Vitori seems to have completely disappeared. Is our bowling this bad? What does Hondo get paid for exactly? How is Blessing bowling so well but Ngarava and co look like they cant buy a wicket this series?

This needs to be addressed because my theory is that bowlers hold the key to a good team simply because if you have fiery bowlers in your team your own batsmen have to face them everyday and that makes them better. Most of the great teams had brilliant bowlers.

[Mr Twig]

To be fair to the bowlers, these pitches have been roads.

Batsmen should be capable of scoring 250-300. Pakistan bowlers aren't getting any assistance.

[Black Mamba]

The best decision of ZC is to quit cricket like Chinese Soccer Team who once represented in FIFA World Cup 2002

Nice hook shot by K long name!

Kamunhukamwe certainly seems to be a better opening option than Chari.

This is not a high bar
