No way. In the era of T20s, 6 wickets in hand and 30 runs required is bugger all. It would take something inspired from Zimbo

I was watching one of the RWC matches (during the group stage). Don't remember which game it was, but someone scored a try, and in celebration the stadium's PA system started playing an Avril Lavigne song.Lol, again Zim playing teeny-bopping music in the background. They must assume the audience is primarily 12 year old girls
Great choice in music for a sport like rugby...

McCullum and Guptill again aye haha. If they don't back this up with decent performances against the top countries (aus and sa this summer), they'll be called minnow-bashers haha.

Didn't watch NZ bat but sounds like Zimbos fielding threw the game away.
I don't understand why minnows can't field well. It is the one skill that you can get good at through practice as opposed to raw talent. If ewen chatfield can hold his catches then there is no excuse for Zimbos.

One of the guys REALLY LIKES TO TALK LOUD INTO THE MICROPHONE every now and THEN.
I don't know if hearing them properly is a better fate. I'm glad Chris Harris was a better fielder than he is a commentator.
I have a theory: A country's standard of commentary directly correlates to their national side.
Zimbabwe: Awful. No chance of decency. Bangladesh: Same. West Indies: One or two big-name stars - but are they really brilliant or just flashy? New Zealand: Rely on one or two names - ie Ian Smith, the rest sh*te. Australia: Used to be the world's best, now a stain on their country's name. England: World's best..brilliant.

Bit late for McCullum, he's made a career bashing the minnows around.taylor scored another 100

The Australian commentary team has not been anywhere near good in my lifetime of following cricket.

Dire.
You've got me there.
Indians are also unjustly full of themselves in both aspects (ie Shastri) and sell their soul to the devil for a high price at the cost of dignity.
Ps. Pommie Mbangwa is mud, but the least of Zimbabwe's worries.
Pps. Whatever happened to Bruce Yardley? He was the worst I've ever heard.
