Match Thread: 3rd ODI Zim vs Ireland 17 Dec

[Googly]

Gumbie has real potential. First and foremost have a solid defence, he really has that in spades.

[tgk]

Getting through the first 10 with 9 wickets intact is honestly decent. Gumbie smothering it down really well and Kaitano is also someone who can do that well, remember the BD test where he played like 100 balls for 7 runs or something. They'll have to accelerate but at this point, 3.5-4 an over is enough.

Steady and streaky. Could have been a worse start.

No lady spectators of note as of yet

[Googly]

Thank goodness Little is not playing. He'd have been lethal in these conditions

[secretzimbo]

Where are all our players?! Burl? Ngarava?

All black XI, first time for at least a decade I think? Let’s see how they do

[secretzimbo]

Gumbie and Kaitano can at least defend. That’s half the battle!

Whether they can build a big innings at this level, I’m not yet sure.

[Googly]

Burl got hit by Little apparently
Dunno about Richie

Both injured according to cricinfo, Ponso - concussion and Rich - groin strain.

You’ll be pleased to know people on there are asking about Johnathan Campbell

Swing seems to have stopped for Adair?
