One guy who's been under the radar in this series is Chakabva...with 45 runs in 4 matches, he's not exactly setting the world on fire...

The PAKs already 3 wickets down. Great opening spell by the Zimboz. Even Chari getting a bowl.

Yep, not bad...but I'm wondering what Muzarabani is doing in the team - his 4 overs have so far cost us 29 runs

Mumba for the test side and nyauchi for the ODI side I think would be fair

Another ludicrous performance, 131-4 to 274-6 with Musakanda, Chari and Kunje, three non bowlers, being used for 9 overs and another non bowler, Muzarabani, bowling 7 more overs of his usual crap

Don't Zim want to win matches?, this is the sort of behaviour that good sides can afford to play around at, not sides like Zim that need every chance of victory they can find

Kunje not really a one day player but giving them a solid base nevertheless.

Chari going very nicely. He has always stuck his hand up for the A side and certainly has something. It is time to elevate him to the senior side but in the ODI side to start off with. Chibhaba and mawayo doing good as test openers so far

noticing that a lot of these up and coming guys are struggling to convert good starts to centuries.I don't think we have had 1 this series..they need to work on that. Chari has been good over the last couple of games. Chakabva should become a test specialist like Mawoyo to be honest.that's his lane and we cant deny that with 13 first class centuries so far which is good by Zimbabwean standards.

We need more info about the current battle between Nyauchi and Mumba.. their stats are similar and they actually haven't played a lot of cricket yet. does anyone have a more informed opinion?

Faark...Waller goes after a pretty good knock. Can Chigs bring this home?
