Zim are batting first and 133/2 in 30 overs.Looks like a solid batting wicket.PJ Moor is gone after playing an excellent innings.
 
Hell of a reverse sweep from Jongwe. Zimbabwe will be a bit disappointed, looked good for 240-250 at one point.
 
It's all over! Zimbabwe with another blockbuster performance and Afghanistan.....well they are busted.Zim win by 65 runs
 
this P J MOORE guy look decent hope he will not be lost to county.another guy is burl i do not know why he was not selected.surprisingly why Waller is not given ball on these spinning wickets he is a decent off spinner.
 
PJ Moor looked good. He can certainly hit them big. Zimbabwe need to nurture him, has a lot of potential. Again Chigumbura's captaincy was unimpressive. He was very reluctant to attack even when Afghans had their back against the wall. Must shed this minnow mentality. I think Masakadza should be given the captaincy. Chigumbura already has enough on his plate and and when in form he is Zimbabwe's best player now that Taylor is gone. Plus I think he is distracted now that he is playing in the BPL and PSL and can't really be bothered with the Zimbabwe team.
 
LOL only one reply.Afghanistan are getting worse.

This shows the level of support afghan team has among neutrals that when they lose, only few people comment and only you are excited in the lose. When they are winning, the thread goes to few pages.

Can't blame them.Afghanistan is such a pathetic batting side that they have only 3 functions.Out,boundary and dot.That's why teams like UAE and Namibia are better than Afghanistan

I am glad that those teams are better but unfortunately they must be playing indoors that we are not able to see the results.

That's because ICC,BCCI,PCB etc helped Afghanistan a lot in last 5 years.If it was not for them,Afghanistan would still have been lagging behind WCL Division 2 or 3

If I remember, UAE also lost to Zimbabwe in the World cup so what you chirping about?:13:

If it wasn't for Pakistanis, Sri Lankans, and Indians, UAE wouldn't have a cricket team. :23:
 
We at least fought.Look at Afghanistan,first they lost by 100+ runs and now they have lost by 65 runs on a batting wicket

What about winning a series in Zimbabwe' backyard and winning 2 matches already where they can still potentially win the series.

Too bad UAE aren't good enough to do any of this...

If it wasn't for UAE,Many people in South Asia would have died due to poverty.It's our generosity that we allow those labor to work here

Yes a loss. 1 and a half years ago. Look at what Afghanistan have done compared to what UAE have done in that time...

LOL so that is what Afghanistan can do even with the full backing of ICC over other Associates barring Ireland?

That is why the series is 2:2 ... Or were you sleeping for the 1st 2 ODIs?

In the first game,Zim batted poorly on a spinning track and second game was much like hit and miss for Afghan which resulted in hit.Afghanistan have now started to show it's true colors and where it stands in world cricket

ICC hardly even backs the associates man, what BS are you spilling out of your mouth. If they had support they would be playing the top 8 more rather than always Zimbabwe. They have to arrange these series themself.

Still doesn't negate the fact that the UAE produces minimal cricketers.

Every time I switch on a UAE channel, there's usually camel-racing ongoing.

If you really want to be an Emirati, perhaps you should give up interest in this 'foreign' sport and focus more on Emirati 'sports'?

Rizk is given by Allah not by you or me or the UAE. People of South Asia have been alive long before UAE was created.

So don't be so arrogant and learn to be humble.

You're actually so dumb and hypocritical. If you can defend Zimbabwe batting poorly why can't you defend Afghanistan???:facepalm:

I am already an Emirati and it's my personal choice to follow whichever sport I like.Camel racing died ages ago here.We have now some UAE born player in the squad which is as good as Moeen Ali playing for England

Because that's what like they bat in every game televised.Did you watch WC? They were by far the worst batting line up

Sure he is.

I'm done here. You go ahead gloating over another team's loss.

What do you even follow cricket? Afghanistan and Ireland are no more playing the WCL.They are given a higher budget than other Associates.That's why you are seeing Afghans play Zimboks but other Associates are laying against each other

May be the worst batting lineup in the entire world but the truth is that they manage to win more matches than UAE, but you're either to stubborn or just plain ******** that you can't accept it.

There is a reason for this. Because Afghanistan and Ireland have earned it. What have UAE done???:13: From a war torn country they have managed to make a decent team but your UAE is chilling in money but can't do crap when it comes to cricket.

Why is it a shock.Their team is supported by ICC and BCCI.

Supported for a reason which I have already mentioned above. But I'll just stop because there is no point wasting time arguing with a brainless, delusional person like you...

Ireland have earned it but can't say anything about Afghanistan.So what if Afghanistan is a war torn country? Why not give Test status to Syria then? We host the matches of your country in our stadiums so you should be thankful rather than acting like an ingnorant

I'm ignorant or is that you?:13: That's not the point. Your posts are laughable. Do Syria even compete in world cricket? No, even less than UAE. Do Afghanistan? Yes. But obviously you have a joke of the brain so you won't understand. Just saying I'm not Afghani, and if your country hates Afghanistan that much why are you hosting their matches? They've already found a better location so thanks for your service.
 
Replying to firebreaker is a complete waste of time.

By his logic teams like Australia and India are surviving because of the money they are receiving from their own country and ICC. Of hell of course they are ! And rightly so. They play well and people pay them

Afghanistan and Ireland deserves backing up from ICC. Ireland are as good as west Indies right now in longer formats. Afghanistan beat BD in 2014, Pakistan A in a OD(if i am not wrong). Heck made Lanka sweat in World Cup and won against Scotland. UAE didn't do anything.

UAE is a team no one will support because they aren't good enough. They are a team full of expats but that is not the point. When teams start doing well they will get the respect they deserve. How many Bangladeshis care about UAE? 0. Pretty sure its not so different in other cricket loving countries.
 
:afridi2:afridi2:afridi2:afridi2Liked the leggie though he needs to develop some more variety and googly.he was mentioned as 17 yrs old but I think he has bunked at least 4/5 yrs just like our Pakistanis :uakmal:uakmal

Why doesn't anyone call the England team "full of expats" ?

Why are you bringing Bangladesh here? They are the one country which is privileged most by the ICC.They got Test status after just one win
