We need more allrounders who can be consistent it atleast batting/bowling. I believe Burl and Evans should be in all formats of the game. Masvaure used to bowl medium pace earlier, he could have been handy in the first test as well.
Zim side of old have always be packed with bits and pieces allrounders. Wlliams not bowling is seriously hurting the team balance and not having Burl as well. Cant imagine Masakadza now being considered an allrounder as well. Apparently Masvaure now bowls slow left arm must be the weight. Visuals from Byo imply Bennet may be fit to take the field. I would imagine its time to give other guys a run and see how they go. No point in sticking to the same side. Matigimu, Nyamhuri, Myers should be coming in.

Very good tight bowling by Zimbabwe, but still no wickets.

This is a very average South African team, Zimbabwe should believe.

Hard to understand
Good spell from our bowlers. Not threatening enuf, but tight anyway.
Pitch is a lot friendlier for the batters this time around.
