    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    I'm going to be walking around with a grin for days. I couldn't be happier for the players. They've had to endure a lot over the last few months and to come out not only compete with Pakistan but beat them shows their fortitude. Chatara has really stepped up to replace Jarvis and become the...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    I hoping for Zimbabwe to get at least a 300-350 run lead for them to at least be in with a shot. Only problem is on a 5th day pitch I'm doubtful Utseya could take any real advantage of it.

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    I wouldn't want Zimbabwe having to chase more than 200 batting last on this pitch. The first session this morning is going to be critical. If the bowlers can remove Khan and Shafiq and then finish of the tail better than the first innings I give Zimbabwe a chance. If they let these two bat until...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    78 run lead is decent enough for Zimbabwe so long as their bowlers can replicate their effort in Pakistan's first innings

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    Chigs should really start thinking about teeing off. He's got his eye in and with only Pany and Chatara left he might as well try for some quick runs

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    There's a number of reasons, the primary reason is the cost of hosting teams that don't draw lucrative television deals. Of all the series that Zimbabwe have hosted since there return to test cricket, only the Indian ODI series has been profitable for Zimbabwe. Everything else has cost them...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    I don't think it's going to matter for much longer anyway. This is probably going to either the second last if not the last test match Zimbabwe will play in the foreseeable future.

    It seems to be becoming more popular for players to work on the T20 seasonal harvest trail

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    I'd be happy with a 50-100 run lead. If Chigs and Shingi can get their eye in tomorrow morning both of them have the potential to do some serious damage quickly. Really happy with Raza and Waller stepping up when it was needed. It'll be interesting if the 2nd test does go ahead who will make way...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    Solid start by Zimbabwe with the bat. If these two can stay together for another 100 or so Zimbabwe could be in with a shot

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    I thought all of Zimbabwe's bowlers did very well today barring able to close the last few wickets out. It shows their fortitude to be able to be this competitive given their off-field dramas. Zimbabwe could have really used Vitori to clean up the tail. I'm concerned about the batting though...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    The first test will go ahead without Williams and possibly Taylor. Williams because he hasn't been paid and Taylor because his wife is expecting to give birth. After the board promised to pay its players by today, they have again failed to do so stating that they promise to pay the players...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Zimbabwe

    He was a leaker but he was also a wicket taker. At least compared to Utseya, Mushy and the other one. As far as I know he hasn't secured an overseas gig yet. Just refusing to play until he gets paid for previous series and until he can secure his finanical future. Whether that's with Zimbabwe or...

    Australia Off Season 2013 thread.

    He's great at bullying affliliate batsmen when playing for the Dutch. Struts around like a king when he knocks over the number 11 playing for Namibia
