[Tour Thread] Bangladesh v Zimbabwe

[eugene]

Unfortunately Chibhabha picked up three wickets. That will give the selectors an excuse to open the bowling with him. Chibhabha's bowling is not of an international standard and he should just focus on his batting if he wants to make the national side.

Scan of the official BCB scoresheet, as posted to banglacricket not too long ago.

I note they have a new columnist who may be familiar to ZCF regulars...

Maehara, do tell! Who's the enemy in our midst?

Fabulous innings by Taylor. Tibbly must be a certainty now for the first ODI after 2 fifties. And yes, Chibhabha striked again

Good to see BCF site has mobile version too. A good thing for people like me. Maehara can you please make ZCF and ZCN mobile friendly too? I first discovered ZCN and was a bit regular too but have problems enjoying full features on mob. CricINFO too become heavily loaded once ESPN captured it. But as soon as they got protests, they launched mobile site too.
The Zimbabwean flag bearers at BCF are doing a fantastic job. Must say they behaved with immense poise and dignity amidst volatile Bangla fans and won there hearts too. May not be the possibility if i join

Excellent reply to the loss in the 1st match, nice to see Taibu is in good touch with the bat as well as Chigumbura and Waller getting their eyes in, i notice that Chigumbura didn't get a bowl though, unless he is unable to because of injury i would have thought that he needed some overs more than any other bowler after the tonking he got from the Kenyans.

Chibhabha is a bit like Matsikenyeri, just on the verge of being dropped and, bang, they come back with some good runs or wickets it's a nice problem to have though, he's been selected for the tour so it's good to see him in touch, we need 15 players that can do the business whenever they're called on.

I notice that some fella called Taylor scored a couple of runs as well, what franchise side does he play for ?
