2nd ODI: Zimbabwe vs Ireland

[tej_27]

Forecast for Monday looks equally as bad as today as well.

Yes it has gone bad suddenly...till yesterday it looked fine ..

They might be able to get a 20 overs a side game in.

If only cricket had such foresight! Unfortunately looks like it might be dry for an hour or two this morning so they'll start a 50-over game....but the forecast is rain for most of the rest of the day

Say the game goes ahead, looks like bowling first would be tempting, but we have recently done well setting targets, thoughts?

Probably bowl first considering DLS

[TapsC2]

Bowl first. Get Stirling out quickly. Keep the run rate down. That should be the plan. If we have to bat first then we need a BT masterclass because Stirling we be a handful for a DLS score. We need to be aiming for 290+

Rain is expected to come surely at around 4 Pm today ..game starts at 10.30 ..so 3.5 hours of first team batting and half an hour of lunch break till 2.30 Pm after that we have 1 hour 30 minutes to sneak in 20 overs to get a game . Ofcourse this is if the rain prediction is exact ...

Zimbabwe won the toss and will bowl first ..dion Myers makes way for Milton shumba ..the only change in the lineup

[secretzimbo]

Zim win the toss and bowl.

Craig is very good with the coin!

[secretzimbo]

Shumba in, Myers out. I wonder if the batting lineup will change? I'm quite happy with Wes being where he is in ODIs tbh so not too keen on him being moved up the order.

[Donald]

Ha ha the one change I wanted. Welcome shumba. A good addition down the order I think with his innovations
