Chibhabha may have taken us out of jail here. Kenya were really cruising. The run rate is up to 4.5.

I have to say that i don't believe anything that i'm seeing on cricinfo :?

Vusi Sibanda is now in the side with Ed Rainsford having gone missing, the overs bowled are about 10 less than the balls faced by the individual batsmen, i would expect Rainsford to reappear in a while and maybe Kamungozi to disappear, or Mutizwa, or Mwakayeni, or maybe even my old grandfather :lol:

What on earth is going on with this scorecard :shock:

It would seem that Kenya are now 6 wickets down, Rainsford has returned, Kamungozi has disappeared, Maruma has lost a wicket to a run out, no balls are being given out like xmas presents, the balls faced are still a mile out from the overs bowled, Mutizwa is now keeping wicket, oh yes, and peace on earth has arrived ;)

So, it's 232-6 and maybe it's tea ? Aha ! the overs have just changed anyway ........

Yes, good that you mentioned all these. I actually lost track after a while trying to "spot the differences" from the earlier scorecard.

...and this is why I stopped posting scorecards on ZCN until the day after the match. You only have to go back and post them again anyway...

I must say that i'm feeling a bit sorry for Thomas Odoyo, poor chap, why won't anyone let him face the bowling ?

38 extras is a little over generous i think, i guess we don't really want the points for a 1st innings lead or are we just confident of the victory anyway ;)

My suggestion for Aga is that one of the fielders tells him he's playing for Sussex not Kenya, he'll get himself out in no time then ........

Question on Aga my fellow Rhinoer as your a Sussex man (myself being an Essex man) how did he manage to earn a one year contract extention as he hardly played this year and when he did he didnt do anything special?
