That is sad. He was a great player for Zim.

I read this earlier this morning in shock and sadness. It happens to the best and worst of us. Yet still it hurts to hear this of a player for whom I have high regard. It happened to Brendan Taylor. Now Sean. Sad. I hope his rehab is successful and he can somehow contribute again to Zim cricket

West Indies are in New Zealand for a series of T20is, ODIs and Tests - https://www.espncricinfo.com/series...6-1491681/match-schedule-fixtures-and-results

In today's T20i, NZ are looking at a tour opening loss to WI. I did not see this as a possible outcome.

NZ now need 20 from 6
Santner 43 off 22
WI win by 7

Caught the last three overs of that NZ/WI match. Man, Santner almost rescued that with some quality shotmaking.

No doubt being paid like Hansie was .

Forrester and Delano Potgieter mounted a good recovery.
213/6 . Forrester gone for 75. Delano 74 not out with Bjorn fortuin 20 not ( such a weird batsmen looks like a tailender in full international level but scored good runs at the levels below).

A mega comeback from 50/5! May still not be enough, but it is something to bowl at. India seem to be off to a decent start in pursuit.

Not quite enough lose by 4 wickets with 3 balls remaining. Good fightback from the boys.

Must have been some match?

Hazlewood out of the first Ashes Test. Best chance @Whright boys will have of winning a test in aus for a long time.
