the swing bond and franklin are getting is great to watch and the fielders look enthusiastic although who wouldn't be when you have bond bowling at 140+kph

Well lets not forget that this is Zimbabwe, he's only bowled 3 overs and he's not at full pace so he's not really going to know where he's at until he plays South Africa I think.

I am not really even focusing on whats in front of him. He hasn't lost his pace, he is cutting it and swinging it. All the signs are good.

Taibu and Streak to come...capable batsmen.
Still no chance of avoiding the follow on, though.

It's only 204 runs away.. good pitch. They are a chance.. not a great chance but still a chance

Actually, it's still 224. After Edgbaston, 20 runs is a lot :)

Fantastic isn't it :)

I tend to think we shouldn't inforce the follow on and should give our top order batsmen some more batting practice. Thoughts?

It's a Test match. You don't do batting practice in a Test match :(

At least, you shouldn't.

The top order certainly are in need of some batting practice judging by their performances yesterday, so that is an idea Fleming should definitely consider. But a victory inside three days could also have some appeal...

46/7. Feel sorry for the Zimbabwean supporters, although judging from the crowd attendance there aren't many of those.
