Considering Parnell&Philander can bat which gives them the nod, if Marchant&Abbott want a spot on the WC squad ahead of Tsotsobe they are going to have to bowl in the powerplays. Certainly should be bowling in powerplays ahead of McLaren!

Elton Chigumbura smashing the bowling at will here!

Got to feel for the lad :(

Panyangara to Rossouw, OUT, he could be gone! He could be gone here. This is suicidal from Rossouw. He dabs this length delivery to mid-off and sets off immediately. The fielder gets to the ball quickly and releases it with one quick wrist action to hit the stumps direct. This is one story he wouldn't want to tell his grandkids.. Maybe he will .. Great work though by Waller. Rossouw would be gutted..
RR Rossouw run out 0 (2m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

Not often we see Faf out-pacing QdK ... or anyone else for that matter :)

Is there or will there be a seperate TriSeries thread, or this caters for everything international cricket happening in Zimbabwe?

Aussies have turned up the gas mark and are hammering the hapless Zimbos - 65 off the last 5 and it ain't over yet :(

This is the part in the match, if you're a Zim bowler, that you do not make eye contact with Elton.

Will Aussie fans suffer from the "Faf fan curse" too? An unconvincing, unwanted&unloved #3 batting "slowly" yet outscoring others consistently?

The way some batsmen bat these days is just not cricket. Just look at Maxwell!

I think the MLB needs to find a new home for some of these blokes.

Australia 350/6 (50.0 ov) - Maybe Zim could just waive the white flag :p

Australia got 350 against Zimbabwe, if Proteas concede the same Mangongo must go easy on his bowlers. Afterall, they would be just as bad as the Proteas!
