B2B wins by a Zim team well played. Great effort from Chari don't see anyone challenging him at the moment. He may as well get an extended run. Mumba showing his class definitely a player who ZC need to keep close tads on. Nyauchi not bad with 3 wickets.

Lots of changes in the playing XI today, no Chari and Moor, possibly in a camp / left for Africa T20s? Madziva leading, Chimhamhiwa comes in and so does Chikomba. Kunje gets a good start and throws it away :(

Mayavo gets another opportunity, not sure why when you already have Sauramba to keep (why is even Sauramba selected? our keeper batsmen are horrible options. Sauramba has disappointed badly over the years) and with Gumbie in the wings.

The top order all getting starts but no converting. Great cameo at the end there from Chimhamhiwa. hope the bowlers can pull this off for a clean sweep.

Long term, looks like Tarisai Musakanda is a Hamilton Masakadza replacement. Seems to be struggling to convert starts like the big man, and seems to be in possession of a golden arm too :)
