It was scripted that it would come down to Evans
Wasn't a bad idea to scoop.

A much better performance from Zimbabwe today, but in the key moments Sri Lanka stepped up with both bat and ball and we didn't.

Can always rely on Ngarava to heave instead of thinking and getting Munyonga on strike. So annoying.

I dont think Munyonga got bat on ball once to those wide yorkers.

Surely there are penalty runs due to us?

Surely someone says to Ngarava as he leaves the balcony- get Munyonga on strike.

That was a great game of cricket.
Munyonga hung around and did a fair to good job to take it deep, but to be critical he chewed up quite a few deliveries with swings and misses. His timing was off and all he had to do was look for the gaps, run some more two's and put Raza on strike more.

There's a story about Sri-lanka tsking too long for their 50 overs which is going to be swept under the rug.

Tino trying to get Williams to big up Tony.
He played well, got us deep, but too many dots and should have focused on gaps and giving Raza more strike.
Hope he reads this instead of getting smoke blown up his arse.
