Now with two wickets we both look stupid
Yep. Make that 3 for Zimbabwe's new premier fast bowler. :lol:

What's the equation for the bonus point? These wickets probably won't change the outcome of the game, but it could cause them to consolidate a bit.

Yup it was surely out, he should have insisted on a review. I’ve been waiting for you guys to see him at work but they’re not missing a single slow delivery. Indeed it’s time for Tari to replace Waller. Elty is still a better option than Malcom.
How's Murray's batting? Say he played all the matches in this tri-series what do you reckon his batting average would be?

As for the keeping, yeah I've been waiting for Cremer to get one past the edge so we can see how fast his hands are.
His keeping is world class, even that catch he makes looks easy by covering so much ground, he’s fantastic to watch. I haven’t seen him bat for a while though. He used to have a big problem through cover, just couldn’t keep it on the ground, but he’s got a great eye. He’s got the ability to be a really good player. I’ve watched him for many years, proud day to see him playing today.

And a third!

I think you're all being too harsh on Muzarabani. He's obviously lacking in self-confidence, which I think explains his tentative run-up and pretty inconsistent pace.

He needs coaching and some experience, but I think we've got the makings of an international class bowler here.

Keep at it guys, use the choicest words for Muzarabani. It seems to be working :)

Cremer's beaten the bat twice now by my count. Just then with a leg break and once earlier with a google and Murray looked comfortable with them both.

This has been a brilliant spell by Cremer it must be said. No wickets yet but he's been on the money every ball. I think he has to bowl himself out here, no point bringing Raza back in to get whacked around and lose the momentum. Muzarabani/Cremer/Jarvis/Chatara from now until there's no other options I think.

I agree. We can't be spoilt for choice. We have very few bowlers who can bowl over 130 kph let alone hit 140.

These commentators are like those two old muppets arguing with each other on the balcony.
