Optimism in the face of years of experience. I like it.

I think you ought to delete that in case watermelon sees it, captain Streak top scores and returns the best bowling figures to beat WI, must be one of his really racist days ....

See "T Duffin" is still on the scoreboard
How many years has he been retired for now?

Back in the 38th over, Cricinfo were speculating on what would be a good score on this pitch:

200 could be very competitive

218/8. Objective met.

Amazing performance by Sikander Raza and Chisoro, a new 9th wicket record partnership I believe

Yup, record for Zimbabwe, and 11th in all ODIs. Good job, those lads.

Just noticing Raza was part of the previous Zim record, too - 89 with Panyangara versus NZ last year.

take a bow Chisoro..invaluable knock..us having an extra spinner might just do the trick..the west indies don't stick around and dig in besides their one opener.. they key is to bowl a tight first 10.that's where they are going to try score 70 odd.we keep that below 50 and we are in with a chance

Good batting by Raza and Chisoro.

I think we'll only win if Sir Graeme gets a 5-fer though. The WI seamers went for runs, so ours will go for more. But the ball was turning square for their spinners, so there's a chance for GC to cash in today.

Wow, great fightback.
