ODI CWC 2023 Qualification Tournament

[Plugger35]

The atmosphere there is incredible.

The crowd there can't be more than 10k but it sounds like 100k.

Zimbabwe cricket is alive again after it looked like it was on it's death bed.

 

[Bedi]

awesome!

 

[Plugger35]

Chase chops on to Chatara and that's just about game over.

 

[wirra44]

Mankad off the last ball if I remember windies needed 1 wicket zimbabwe needed 3 runs

It definitely is alive, My only concern is there batting depth tho after there guns retire, there gun batters are ervine, Williams and Raza but are all 37 years of age hopefully there is some young batters coming through

 

[Bedi]

great win

 

[Plugger35]

Raza taking the catch to win it.

What a win for Zimbabwe and dejection for the West Indies.

Ian Bishop doing a great job of hiding his disappointment in his team.

 

[Bedi]

Love the 'hard hat' supporters who came equipped with helmets for a tough game. Very cool they'll give them a lap of honour

 

[hawkman]

Zimbabwe are now favourites to go through. They were also last time until they choked their last game against UAE

 

[ioppolo]

ha, what happened?

Pretty much what Wirra44 said, here's video footage. 0:56 timestamp.

 

[Plugger35]

Absolute scenes at the HSG, the Harare Sports Ground, I've never seen it so packed even when Andy Flower was in his pomp.

According to the commentators there were crowds of people that couldn't get in, they might need to build a bigger ground with a few more grandstands.

Ervine looks like Adam Scott

There were a few empty pockets around from what I saw.

The members probably didn't turn up, happens at every ground including the MCG.

The old white members at the HSG had probably fled the country during the Mugabe years.

 

[Lia]

Had a quick look on Kayo, what a great crowd and result for Zimbabwe

 

[Jamurp]

What an incredible crowd in Zimbabwe! so good to see! so much passion.

 

[akkaps]

Ireland expensive early on, with Nissanka smashing Little all over the park

 

[akkaps]

Whilst Oman keeps the runs down against Scotland

 

[big_e]

Is there no DRS for this ? I would have thought at least this would have DRS.
Gives some of the minnows nations (if they qualify) some experience with DRS before the big one.
More referring to Poorans wicket here

There are no minnows in this tournament.

 

[t_94]

Little 0/46 off 5, glad he is well rested.

Little 0/46 off 5, glad he is well rested.

Of all of Ireland's disappointing performances this tournament he would have to be the most disappointing. Has bowled some genuine trash.

Edit: I suppose its easy to perform in a domestic competition like the IPL, a bit different doing it at the next level with actual consequences for losing.

 

[Plugger35]

Sri Lanka are a chance to get around 350 from here.

 

[IKnowtheDog]

Appalling bowling performance by Ireland giving Sri Lanka an extra three overs of deliveries

Weak as piss from a 23 year old. Acting like he’s Wasim Akram because a corrupt cement company executive gave him a fat payday
