Amar arek khan kotha asilo. Although some wickets we lost today have been quite unfortunate (Aftab's LBW, Bashar's runout, and to some extent Tamim's catch [it was a difficult one]), look at the bowling figures of the Zimbos.
EC Rainsford 10 2 41 2 4.10 (2nb, 2w)
AJ Ireland 10 1 51 2 5.10 (3w)
CB Mpofu 10 1 52 3 5.20 (3w)
P Utseya 10 0 50 1 5.00
SC Williams 4 0 22 0 5.50
CJ Chibhabha 3.2 0 29 0 8.70 (2w)
I would say it's poor captaincy by Utseya that lost them the match. He used up his best bowling attack too early...and then had to rely on the two most expensive bowlers of the day. Oh well, now he may be singing - "ami phaissa gechi mainka chipay".
