Good batting effort by Brendan Taylor and Friday Kasteni.

Excellent bowling performance by the young spinner Tinotenda Mutombodzi picking up 7/54.

Good allround performance by Graeme Cremer. He is indeed in the peak of his performance.

Great to see Douglas Hondo playing and he picked up 5 important wickets in the match. That's where he should be, playing domestic matches and pushing for the national side. At his age he shouldn't coach the bowlers but should play.

It would be teribble. According to the ICC report on Zimbabwean cricket, he is self employed I mean has another job probably besides cricketer. If that's true then he won't be available for international matches and tours (+FC match). Just like the same case of Marcus Trescothick from England.

Cricket Archive scorecard has just come on tonight

I see it states at the bottom that Ray Price had to leave the match due to a family illness, fingers crossed it's nothing too serious.

Strange that we have a scorecard from Kwekwe this time but the Mountaineers/Rocks one is still incomplete.

Match report from the Sunday News

Sounds as the match had a bit of a silly finish, maybe the captains should be allowed more of a say in whether to continue matches or call them draws at an earlier time.

Meanwhile, best wishes to Ray Prices child.
