Great shot Hamilton!

That was actually a top class cover drive from Hammy there. Ball is still swinging but the NZ bowlers look a bit flat now. Possibly the low Oxygen tension kicking in...?

Four!

Who is this Symbol, foreignfield?

Hammy and Chamu looking fairly comfortable.

Hi Guys, have been in Zim for five weeks. Caught the last t20 and grabbed breakfast with John Ward.

Looks like a decent selection in the circumstances. Though I'd have given Shingi a run in front of Chinouya.

Hope Hami bats long. Actually, hope any of them do.

Why is he The Symbol? Excuse my slow sense of humour?

(And I agree Prince could have batted at three, Hammy four, Williams five, Ervine six. Raza at 7 makes me believe Waller was unlucky, under the circumstances.)

Who the hell is Stanley Muringani?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_(m ... Pseudonyms

In 1993, in rebellion against Warner Bros., which refused to release Prince's enormous backlog of music at a steady pace, he changed his name to a symbol combining the male (♂) and female (♀) symbols, soon dubbed "The Love Symbol", and until 2000, Prince was referred to as "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince" or "The Symbol".

His name is Prince and he is funky, when it comes to funky, he is a junky...mic drop...exit...boom.
