I think Ireland will bowl as much spin as they can here, the pitch looks horrid to time on against the ball without any pace

I don't think other teams' supporters come close to feeling the constant anxiety we do.
We expect Zim to fuck it up and they often do, hence the cumulative stress.

This is becoming a real issue for Wes, he looks like such a happy hooker and it gets him out constantly

Ya that missed pull from Ballance shows exactly how slow the deck is.

Shows that Ervine's get out shot was really poorly thought out. Have to play squarer and pick them off unless it's an absolute half volley.

I'm really disappointed at the crowd. Thought it would be full.
I got absolutely slated by the forum last month when I said that nobody actually in Zimbabwe cares about playing Ireland.

Turns out I was right.

I haven’t been watching up until now sadly. Sounds like we bowled well, but as expected the pitch is very difficult after this past month of weather.

Great to see Ballance in a Zimbabwe shirt. Really really great
