Why on earth would you bat first plus still play the extra bowler when we were 120-6 two days ago? The brains trust here need to be fired because this is ridiculous. Who bats first in Harare?

From cricinfo:
Sikandar Raza says the pitch looks dry and he wants to change that mentality of just chasing by putting runs on the board. Stirling reckons he would have bowled first anyway and that suits the eleven they have fielded. Expects the track to play similarly to how it did on Wednesday.
He is acting like he is playing a video game or something. Idiot... we are in for a tough few years with a captain like this.

Sat in his mother’s basement blazing mbanje all day on the Xbox. Like I know we’re shit and nobody ever bats first but old raz dawg can change this on the hard level.

maybe an unpopular opinion but if Chari gets to 50 in his innings to day that would be the 3rd time he has gone past 50 in his last 5 innings, 2 of those were converted to tons :D :D

Is it finally sinking in that we've been very lucky of late with some of our results, a la T20WC, Bang series etc. We really need a new batting coach and an overhaul of the coaching set up.

Just know that in a few years time the team will be coached by Prosper and Elton. Things are going to get much worse unless some serious change is made.

I've pretty much given up guys. We are all humans and only have so much patience. Losing to Uganda and now this, all this is beyond my patience levels.
