Bangladesh avoid major scare to book Super 8s berth at T20 World Cup, set up Australia showdown
Bangladesh have avoided a famous capitulation to claim a tense 21-run victory over Nepal and seal their spot in the Super 8s of the…
After impressive wins against cricketing heavyweights Australia and Pakistan, Zimbabwe are finally showing that they can match it with the big boys of international cricket.
Zimbabwe has had a controversial time on and off the field since its initiation as a Test playing nation in 1992. Political issues have seen the retirement of world-class players such as wicketkeeper-batsman Andy Flower, former captain Heath Streak, and speedster Henry Olonga.
Putting the past behind them, this seems to be a rejuvenated Zimbabwe side captained by exuberant off-spinner Prosper Utseya.
Zimbabwe shocked the cricketing world when they defeated a full strength Australian line up by 1 run in their first warm up match, thanks to the batting heroics of all-rounder Elton Chigumbura, who made a brutal 76 from 35 balls.
Chigumbura was once again the star as Zimbabwe were too good for Pakistan. Man-of-the-match Chigumbura scored an unbeaten 49 from 35 balls and also took three vital wickets to pull off a dramatic victory.
Zimbabwe face in-form Sri Lanka tonight in their first group match. This will be a true test of how far this embattled nation has come since the political scandals that rocked the side in the late 1990s.
