**Official** Afghanistan in Zimbabwe (11th Dec to 6th Jan)

I'm guessing that this is the sort of game that the less rich cricket nations will give as to why they don't want to do test cricket. I wonder what tv viewing stats will be like for this test?

Haha five for Bennett of all players on this road. I bet the frontline bowlers who had about 30 catches dropped each on Day 3 and broke their backs bowling to the top order loved seeing him burgle the tail with his straight darts.

Some game for him though.

Afghanistan managing to show that even on the roadiest of roads against weak bowling, there's plenty of scope for a comedy collapse.

Gumbie just kept for 197 overs and they still made him open the batting even though the game was almost certainly dead already and the bloke scheduled to bat #3 is actually a specialist opener.

How much time is left? Surely it's impossible on this deck, but lolapses can be incredible

I didn’t really follow the game aside from seeing the big scores. But I feel a little bad for Bennett. Century and a 5’fer and couldn’t even get MotM.

i dont mean ro hate any one but i think its a waste of resources for icc for these two to playb test.The best way to introduce them to test is to let them play with a real test nation and then they can play together after that

They should just not cut the grass, or flatten it at all till next year's test
I've just checked the results of the games leading up to the test. Perhaps the Zimbucks weren't going to take any chances and prepared a pitch to ensure their side made runs.

honestly but for the rain there was actually an outside shot at a result here! love that they got to play tests but hope there's some better pitches in store for both nations when they do again
