*Official* South Africa Test Tour of Zimbabwe 2025

[Thala_0710]

Bedingham gone too, Zimbabwe have started really well here. The WTC champions are in trouble

 

[Heboric]

Yikes

 

[Fuller Pilch]

23/3!!

Go Zim

Would be great if a non WTC side beats the champs


(Then NZ will tour Zimbabwe for the world championship)

 

[CricAddict]

I know Zim have seam bowling depth issues atm and Bulawayo is meant to take spin, but 2 seamers and 4 spinners (including Williams and Madhevere) seems a bit extreme...

Williams doesn't bowl anymore.

 

[GRAB]

Not very good from DE zorzi and breetzke especially seeing all the threat is from the seamers and Zim only have 2.

That ball to Breetzke was a good nut though...

 

[Stefan9]

Pretorius smacked his fourth ball in test cricket for 6. No nerves there.

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

I hate to say it but Bedingham seems to be a tad overhyped , I thought we were getting a consistent run machine, if Pretorius or Brevis make big runs here his place is in danger

 

[GRAB]

No Pommie in comms. Does he feel safe visiting Zim?

 

[Stefan9]

Bad mix-up... wiaan gone

 

[andruid]

You can watch live on icc.tv as much as I hate giving Jay Shah my email address.

In 30 days time I’ll be at this ground for the NZ test

Damn website is taking me round in circles. Anyway, Zimbabwe came to play!

I think he is just a lot looser in technique and temperament than someone with his stats would suggest. Still has a higher ceiling than most other contenders imo.

 

[Stefan9]

Pretorius survives thanks to no drs. He hit the cover off that.

 

[GRAB]

Best shots for Pretorius so far have been the timed drives...

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Brevis and Pretorius batting together, not since Amla and AB have we had two huge young prospects batting together in Tests

 

[Stefan9]

Besides that one moment Pretorius have looked in control.

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Zimbabwe unlucky, Pretorius edged the ball but the umpire did not give him out .

 

[SeamUp]

Seam
16 overs 30 runs 3 wickets
Spin
12 overs 57 runs 0 wickets

 

[SeamUp]

Brev has hit his 6 now.

These 2 & Stubbs finding his mojo again will be so exciting.

 

[SeamUp]

Brevis is going to lose some balls here. Hitting them for 12, not 6.

 

[GRAB]

The wrist spinner in me feels for Masekesa. He's strung some good balls together but that drag down he hasn't been able to get away with...
