Fantastic comeback win against Zimbabwe. I thought we had no chance at one stage when Zimbabwe looked like they would score 400+.

I know! I even sent a message to ippy saying that we were getting slaughtered and were looking at 400+. I was feeling a bit :oops: about it, actually.


I mean, everything went according to my Grand Master Plan... :ninja

Yep. Make their players complacent, then get them out for less than 350 to knock their morale and raise ours so that we have the confidence to chase the total. It worked perfectly!

we're had our share of close losses, as well. I keep thinking back on all the things I could have done better. spitting chips, to be honest...

Thanks for the encouragement. I was actually considering turning it in after this result, but perhaps I will give it another go.

I've done some reflecting in the last few days and I've got a few ideas kicking around in my head. Hopefully we can get an early promotion next season...

Unlucky rogue, it's a shame to get so close and just miss out. :(

We'll just have to make sure the USA get there next time. I'm sure you'll get us to bounce back. :)

Davis is an important player for us, and Spencer is just starting to mature. We'll be right for keeper-bats for a few seasons before Farmer and Roach come along.

Unfortunately Walton's manager went bot. We lost a good player there... :(

..but my guys put on 100+ for the second wicket at about a run a ball.

We'll need a good score in these conditions.

Hicks may be worth consideration over Farmer.
