Zimbabwe need to keep chipping away

If England get more than 170 it will be difficult for Zimbabwe to chase this down.

 

[Easa]

Pietersen going berserk with reverse sweeps!

Peak Frean Super Peak Frean Super

Every time I see that advert I think the guy is singing 'BP SUPER'.....as in British Petrolium. And I think it is an advert for petrol, not biscuits!

 

[vandermadaveg]

Dabengwa to Pietersen, SIX, what an incredible shot! Pietersen plays a full-blooded reverse pull, he was switching hands before the ball leaves the hand, and it whistles clean out of the middle!

What sort of shot it was? innovation?

Can anyone post video of this?

 

[12thMan]

it was same reverse sweep that Pietersen hit Murali for six. that video is on youtube.

[Salman]

zim 28-0 from 2.3 overs

 

[Salman]

FOUR

Zim 32-0 off 3 Overs

 

[iafzal]

Zim starting a good chase to an uphill battle
32 in 3 overs without loss

 

[iafzal]

That will be something if Zim can pull this off. Scoring 189 especially against a test playing nation will be no small feat.

So far so good... but can they keep it up?

 

[Salman]

Zim 46-0 after 4.4 overs

 

[12thMan]

Zim 47-0 after 5 overs - need 142 from 90 balls
Eng was 45-2

 

[iafzal]

Perfect start for Zim 48 in 5 overs.

 

[Amjid Javed]

come on zimbo... id love 2 see another upset!

 

[Billy]

Colly's making exactly the same mistakes with his quicks as Ponting did yesterday.

[12thMan]

Zim 62-0 after 7 overs - need 127 from 78 balls @ 9.77 runs an over

 

[pak4life]

[MIB]

Can England continue the solid performance against Aus?

Depends what Australia turns up.

 

[Islamabadi]

..

 

[iZeeshan]

Decent effort I guess, though I didn't expect them to win.

 

[12thMan]

60% chance of rain during Ind-Sco match. It is drizzling now. maybe we will have a 5/5 instead

 

[Amjid Javed]

A wash out wud be great, followed by pakistan spanking india and sending them home.

 

[Pathan007]

India's game could be washed out which is gr8 for Scotland.

 

[12thMan]

you can watch Gloucestershire vs Worcestershire Pro40 match on sky 3. They will inform you when Ind-Sco match starts. Razzaq is playing in it but Worcs are bowling first. If Worc wins they win the Pro40
