*Official* Bangladesh in Namibia and Zimbabwe

183 all out. :(

8 wickets lost for 30 runs. Not good at all.
No, not good, but still not great from Zimbabwe's perspective. The headline on cricinfo was 'Bangladesh implode to 183', which seems to suggest to me that it was a self-destructive effort on Bangladesh's part rather than particularly great bowling.
Scores of 8,3,2,2,3,4,2* from 5 down after such a solid start suggest that Bangladesh still haven't mastered the basic concept of ODI cricket, i.e. attacking, with the exception of Ashraful and Bashar on occasion.
If Zimbabwe are to gain anything meaningful from this match, and indeed the series, they really must make an effort to beat Bangladesh convincingly in 35 overs or so. Thus far they haven't come close to fulfilling Streak's desire of dominating Bangladesh.

Khaled Mahmud has gone duck hunting!
Zimbabwe 4/120 off 26, Mahmud with 7-1-15-4! Carlisle, Matsikenyeri and Taibu all gone for ducks, Flower for 59, inspirational stuff from the great Mahmud
:) :D :) :P

edit - Unbelievable, Ervine bowled by Tareq for 1, Zimbabwe now 5/120, 64 runs needed. They have now lost 5/8 in 3 overs.

edit again with a smile :D - Rogers OUT! Tareq strikes again, leading edge caught at cover, Zimbabwe 6/124, the collapse continues. Up to the experience of Streak now, Ebrahim and Price are capable but only Hondo and Brent to follow, could turn out to be a nightmare for Zimbabwe.
