Zimbabwe vs Ireland ODI Series 2010

[SciD]

Now only Price is out. But why? He is their best bowler and in Top 10 ICC bowlers as well. :

 

[Chewie]

Damn my captain just got out

 

[ZexyZahid]

Zimbabwe is just bowling Ireland away. I just hope my captain doesn't get a duck.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Ireland were at one point 22-4 and I had no clue, that the match would finish with a last ball victory. My captain is White and normally he bowls. Seven 7 Irish players bowled, but he didn't.

Some days ago I replaced Botha with Masakadza. Masakadza got a duck, but I see he bowls again and also got a wicket.

On the wicketkeeping department I took the right player: Taibu, who scored a fifty, instead of Niall O'Brien, who grabbed a duck.

The only performers I don't have is Wilson, Rainsford and Dockrell.

Luckily my captain performed, otherwhile I wouldn't be that high in the standings.

My 5 batsman have scored together a great total of 42 runs.

[AkshayS]

missed on Rainsford, I dropped him for Mpofu but hope Mpofu will get better.
Also my captain is shitt.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Porterfield and Niall O'Brien are out very cheaply again. I see Andre Botha is playing instead of Nigel Jones.

Lamb and Price are again not playing.

 

[Chewie]

Stirling, my captain, is batting well though

 

[ZexyZahid]

He has scored over 30 runs and has a strikerate of 200. He is probably in a hurry. Hopefully to the dressing room.

I don't have Stirling actually.

 

[ZexyZahid]

White got a duck. This guy better starts bowling and take wickets to make up this duck.

 

[Chewie]

They've tended to go for Stirling rather than White for part time spin recently

 

[AkshayS]

Price not playing again and I don't know the reason.

Though my captain got a 30 and 20 points wicket. Hope he will score something with the bat.

 

[Haarithan]

Why on earth isnt Price playing , he is world number 3 in bowler's rankings for no reason

 

[ZexyZahid]

White took two catches to negate his duck, but he is scoring not enough.

Taibu has scored more then about 60 points then Niall O'Brien, so that's good.

Of the performers I don't have Stirling. Masakadza was disappointing again, while he had a great year.

Zimbabwe has now won the ODI series, so maybe Lamb and Price will play in the next ODI.

 

[Chewie]

I'll score this when I get home if no one else has scored it by then. That's still 6 hours away so feel free to score for me

I have Stirling, but I also have Niall.
