What a win guys! Have been following on Cricinfo right from the beginning of the match today. Unbelievable win against a full strength Australia!
What a spell from Burl! Taking him to 50 international wickets too as part of that. And a mature captains knock from Regis to take us home. Contributions by other bowlers too and by Marumani.
I thought a lot of credit should also go to how Regis marshalled his bowlers today. Taking Ngarava off early when he gave away a few runs, keeping Nyauchi going for his 6th, bringing Evens early and bringing back Ngarava to keep the pressure up. Going to Williams as first spin option and then the inspired move to bring Burl on...
I missed the innings, but if true, maybe Regis was always our best captain and it was under our nose and we didn’t see it.
He definitely stepped up with the bat.
Not easy to carry the team against this attack considering he’s not the worlds greatest bat to begin with.
But that’s cricket. It’s mental.

Lol Aussies posing with the series trophy as if they have lost it . Gives the context how much Aussies took us for granted and thought this was a cakewalk
