Zimbabwe vs New Zealand/ 2nd T20/ Tri-Series/ Hre 18 July 2025

[tgk]

Need to stop with the Madande at 3 experiment. Madhevere looked better than yesterday but still not good enough. Burl and Raza, need to see the performance that gets them all those T20 leagues.

[Flakeman]

I don’t care if Burl gets out straight after posting this, that first 4 against Bracewell just puts him 3 notches above where all his “competition” are. There are levels to batting and he’s 3 steps above the favourites.

[Andy31]

Soft out but I rather him go for a quick fire score then hog balls

[Irwin Goodman]

It should be Ryan at 3 if not Tony.
Madande should be where Musekiwa is.
Tony seems like he doesn't know anything but putting in at leg side.

[CholeZimbo]

there really is zero T20 talent in this team. If you cannot hit a 6 as an opener, it is really bad. Tony missing 3 consecutive sweeps. just bad. even the commentators are really tired of our poor shows

[Andy31]

In some trouble now

Need these finishers to finish

[Googly]

The brass band is a stroke of belated genius. They'll be kicking themselves for not having thought of that long ago.

[Irwin Goodman]

The bowlers can pretty predict every movement of the batsmen. That's summary of this innings!

[Andy31]

Just makes you want to see BT ramp

[andrea lanzoni]

Today is being one of the worst batting performances by Zimbabwe.

Bennet lucky until wicket: many fly balls ending in no mans land.

Burl boom boom before falling with limited runs scored.

Raza, once again, has no patiennce (concentration?) and throws away his batting chance.

This time I'm really disappointed (above all against a 'minor' New Zealand)
