Well done craig ervine and well done Matsi. I hope now Matsi will get some recognition for his talent.

Who is this Craig Ervine muppet ?

83 not out and still going. Quite a useful 'muppet' apparently.

You obviously missed this.

"Also I am pleased to see Craig Ervine put in a good performance."

Hope zim bowl well today.

Start of play was delayed during rain, but they'll apparently run late tonight to get a full day's play in (rain permitting) so no lost time. Close of play at 7pm Netherlands time.

Lunch, Day Two: Zimbabwe XI 298, Netherlands 32/3 (19 overs; Nijman 14*, Mushangwe 1/3). Netherlands trail by 266 runs.
(Under the Intercontinental Cup's points scheme, 6 points go to whoever leads at the end of the first innings, and a further 14 to the eventual winner.)

Rainsford seems to be bowling with bit of hostility

36.5 Rainsford to W Barresi, no run. Ducks into a short one which doesn't get up much, struck on the chin

[Lostart]

Ha ha 78-7 we are getting through them quite nicely now. Thats three in the last 9 overs, keeping a check on the scoreing rate too.

[Train Driver]

Yes, a really good position but still much too early to talk about the possible outcome of this match, the lads are doing their best to claim those 6 first innings points though

Netherlands struggling at 87-7 from 45 overs

Mushangwe 2-21, Rainsford 2-23, Maruma 1-7 & Waller 1-11

(Under the Intercontinental Cup's points scheme, 6 points go to whoever leads at the end of the first innings, and a further 14 to the eventual winner.)

Are there any bonus points for an innings victory? And what are the rules for enforcing the follow on? Is 200+ lead a must or is it 150+?
