Yeah I had made them long back. (Refer my old tour - Englands Tour of NZ/Zim) They do have the new Zimbabwean players, but they are not based on your latest roster update file.

lol you edited my post rather than quoted it...
Do you want to post the players in the downloads forum as .data so other people can import them?

Okay Guys I just completed the England innings in the 2nd ODI...and England have scored 279-7 in their 50 Overs. A much better performance from Zimbabwe who had England at one stage at 221-7 after 42.4 Overs. But a useful partnership at the end between Alex Wharf and Andrew Strauss ensured that England posted a good total. This is nowhere near England's mammoth 386-7 scored in the 1st ODI, but is still a very good score.

Screenshots and Stats up next.

Yeah vaughan you must be feeling bored playing the game....dominating Zimbabwe.

 

[m_vaughan]

Update

The ECB and ZCU have reduced the Nissan ODI series to 4 ODIs, instead of 5, as the England Team arrived late to Zimbabwe following the Mugabe government's decision to block British reporters from travelling to Zimbabwe.

So England currently are enjoying an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the series. Stay tuned for the 3rd and 4th ODIs.
