[Match Thread] Zimbabwe XI vs Afghanistan

[zimfan1]

Taibu and Mutizwa at the crease so there is a little hope, 44 runs ahead with 5 wickets left

[zimfan1]

181-5 come on boys keep going

[maehara]

181/5 - nice little stand developing there, by the looks of it...

[maehara]

248 for 5 -Taibu is 109 not out -Zim leading by 171 runs now

Afghanistan's secret weapon is that everyone underestimates them...

[zimfan1]

top effort by Taibu he is banging down the selectors door now, i wonder if we will see his last 5 matches of his ban mysteriously dissapear

Afghanistan's secret weapon is that everyone underestimates them...

It is - which surprises me, as it's not as though their rise has gone un-noticed. That's not going to last them forever, though.

Taibu the savior! May be he just needed a wake up call like this to get his desire back. But why is Mutizwa batting so low again? Some strange decisions here too.

[maehara]

Zimbabwe XI 267/6 at close - Taibu out on the last ball of the day for 120.
Mutizwa still there on 56, Garwe should be next man in.
