40.5
Naeem Islam to Waller, 1 run, dropped again as Waller scoops a delivery straight to Dolar at sweeper who does the unthinkable by dropping a sitter. If Waller goes on to get a big score, we know whom to blame


45.3
Abdur Razzak to Cremer, OUT, and strikes the timber with an arm-ball. Cremer was looking to cut it away and is beaten by the bounce. He would have been better off playing straight of all the three balls in the over. What's the use of crying over split milk

I just get the feeling some of the "commentators" are partisan. Maybe its me :o :o

Ok so we were bowled out but I am still sticking with a win by 45 runs.

Not a big total by Zimbabwe.

Top scorer Malcolm Waller was dropped twice. Tatenda Taibu played well even with his injury but was dropped too. Justice Chibhabha well done but needed to go on. Most of the batsmen got starts but didn't kick on.

Bangladeshi fielding was very poor especially from Dollar Mahmood.

Abdul Razzaq bowled exceedingly well, you have to give credit to him. But it's also a fact that Zimbabwean batsmen didn't play him well , I mean the technique wasn't perfect.

I thought Graeme Cremer has vastly improved his batting skill after seeing him excellent batting performance for Midwest Rhinos. But today I wasn't impressed at all seeing his batting. Raymond Price should come in before him at no 9.

For Zimbabwean prospective, I think Raymond Price will be the key. I know he just loves to face and give challenges.

I watched the whole innings today and the problem that Zimbabwe had throughout the innings was deciding if to play the spinners of the front or the back foot. This was evident in Taylors, Wallers and Cremers dismissals where indecision meant the they ended up doing neither and just trying to play the ball without moving there legs.

But i don’t think it is a belter and there was a lot of turn in the wicket so its time for Ray Price to stand up and show the world what a good spinner he is. This is also a big test for young Cremer as he is going to have to take wickets if Zimbabwe are going to win this match.

I just hoping that the ball will do something under the lights as they are not the best lights going around.

early wickets are the key!!!!
