T20 World Cup - Zimbabwe v Ireland Match Thread (October 17th)

[Kallum]

Raza is completely losing his shape now, looks like he is trying to hit it too hard

[slcricfan1]

Little is so good.

McCarthy with a golden over...but the damage is done here. ZIM on course to get well over 170 and that is 40 more than Ireland could chase.

Not sure where you get your ideas from, but 170 is looking very far away.

yikes

Yeah Burl can only hit spinners. Raza is a demon against the short ball, but struggled with the yorker as do most batters.

[secretzimbo]

Burl isn't a finisher!!!! How many times we got to say this? Bat him higher up and have Munyonga at 7.

Cricinfo had 173 projected before Burl go out. Namibia plundered 13 runs per over in the last 5 yesterday. At that rate ZIM would get 190

To be honest, I think we just haven't played him well enough. There was no need for that shot from Burl. He just needed to play along the ground, keep himself in there until the end.

Namibia had wickets in hand. We were ok whilst Shumba was there, but once he went, we needed Burl to settle and then carry.

[Mr Twig]

At least we're getting 150+.
