Ervine just missed his - someone will fail. Williams and Waller had brain lapses.

Well played Cremer being captain becomes him.

Tiripano looks like a very solid batsman.

Yeah, early signs suggest he's graduated from the Brendan Taylor school of captaincy. Lead from the front. It's been a really gutsy performance from him with bat and ball.

I've got a lot of time for him too, probably moreso as a batsman based on today and the NZ series. It's a shame he's not more threatening with the ball.

What I like about Cremer and Tiripano is that they display toughness, with both bat and ball. Even when they are not doing well they don't seem to give up, reminds me of the Zimbabwean teams of old.
