*Official* Zimbabwe in Bangladesh 2010

[TT Boy]

Siddique gone. Great start by Zim.

 

[M0rphin3]

Another 50 for Shakib, WAFG

 

[Adamc]

Shakib owns Zim at home. 498 runs @ 55.33 and 27 wickets @ 17.25. Not the toughest opposition tbf, but none of his compatriots come close to that sort of record.

 

[MagaMan]

Bangladesh in the driving seat and once again it's Abdur Razzaq with 3 wickets.

Mashrafe is getting back to rhythm, things are looking up for Bangladesh

 

[cricman]

Razzak might have a chance at 10 ... If they keep Pace at one end

 

[Athlai]

Razzak!!!!!!

 

[MagaMan]

Mashrafe has a wicket at last! Very very good signs these are for Bangladesh

 

[Prince EWS]

Zimbabwe are going to get rolled for less than 100 here. Long tail today with Cremer in for Dabengwa and Shingi in for Meth, and all the good batsmen are out. Need one of those random Prosper knocks to even restore credibility.

 

[Jarquis]

Wtf Zimbabwe

 

[M0rphin3]

Razzak 6.0-2-5-4

 

[MagaMan]

Is this Zimbabwe's strongest batting line up? Or are some players missing? This batting lineup looks quite shaky to me to be honest. What happened to players like Coventry? He scored a massive 194 against us back in Zimbabwe

 

[Prince EWS]

Is this Zimbabwe's strongest batting line up?

No, basically. Williams is injured, Chigumbura is injured and Masakadza was inexplicably left out for the first couple of games. Mutizwa is a better backup than the blokes they've picked too.

What happened to players like Coventry? He scored a massive 194 against us back in Zimbabwe

Coventry is extremely inconsistent, poor technically and has been poor domestically. He became very over-rated very quickly after one knock and IMO isn't one of Zimbabwe's best siz or seven batsmen. That said, he's better than Dabengwa and a better bet against Bangladesh than Chibhabha as the latter can't play spin.

 

[Prince EWS]

These two are probably legitimately better players of spin bowling than Justice Chibhabha. It's such a shame for him because he's probably Zimbabwe's best player of pace barring Taibu.

 

[M0rphin3]

Shockingly poor bowling from Shakib so far, though he's been denied 1 plumb LBW

 

[vcs]

Where's Brendan Taylor?

 

[Prince EWS]

Where's Brendan Taylor?

Getting out for 15 opening the batting.

 

[M0rphin3]

Shakib got hammered today

 

[vcs]

Getting out for 15 opening the batting.

Oops.. sorry, my mistake there.

 

[Howe_zat]

Shakib got hammered today

True. But I'll forgive him for today because he performed with the bat. That's a notable trait of his, he almost always performs with either one or the other, rarely both and rarely neither.

And it happened.
