I knew straight away it was outside leg, bad decision by the umpire.

Pitch looks pretty low and slow, batting first is good I feel.

Was going to say, batting first seems to have been a great toss to loose here. Reckon it'll turn much later on?

Looks like Ian bishop is in Harare . I will miss his commentary for zimbabwean games

Yeah I do, I reckon Burl might be handy on this deck.

The biggest impact that Gumbie has had is that we are no longer losing wickets in the first ten overs. This is giving Williams and Raza a great platform to launch from.

Not sure what Jongwe is adding here, we already have three pacers plus five spinners. Marumani and Kaia are both better options with the bat.

Very true. I doubted him initially but Gumbie has been really good.

One huge plus for Zimbabwe in Super 6s is that we've got DRS.

1 hour of play and I still don't get why you need four pacers on this pitch

This cannot be understated how big a factor it has been, in my opinion (and obviously most of the forum agrees) it has been the biggest factor to the teams success so far.

I think Jongwe has been picked more for his batting rather than his bowling, even though it sounds crazy I think that’s the case. I can’t see him bowling many, if any overs at all.

Jongwe for his batting is ridiculous when you have Kaia in the side.
