1st ODI Zimbabwe vs Ireland

[secretzimbo]

It looks like Burl is at the ground. Usually a badly sprained ankle would keep him out for a lot longer than this. Interesting. Maybe he's just there to watch/support though.

Raza, Williams and Taylor in

Finally the "big 4" are playing together again

Burl is injured.

Wes will bat down the order in ODIs. Chakabva will open. Either Taylor or Myers/Shumba will open too.

3 Myers/Shumba
4 Ervine
5 Williams
6 Madhevere
7 Raza
8 Jongwe
9 Masakadza

Has the match started? I am nervous AF

[Jemisi]

With Burl injured this is finally the best xi we can manage.

[sam_ahm]

Finally Taylor, Raza, Ervine, Williams and Blessing all playing together. Add Chakabva as well.

Zimbabwe better win this.

Broadcasting live in India so no worries for us.

Interestingly all 12 ODIs here have been won by team batting first, still Balbir ie opts to field. Strange.
