19/5. such a shame. RJ your theory seems more and more likely, this sort of performance will give doubters a nudge

From the moment they selected the side, I had a feeling this was round the corner. It is a sad day for Cricket. ICC say they want to develop nations to make them into Test class. They also say they won't interfer in a local dispute. Surley they have to realise that this situation is not helping Zimbabwe.

I have always admired Zimbabwe, even though they have a small pool, the play at an exceptional level.

It is time that the ICC act, either by instructing the ZCU to remove politics from their selection poilcy, or banning them for the good of cricket in Zimbabwe and also around the world.

19/5 ! Triple m*rd. I'm cracking open the Kronenbbourg.
Sounds more like a date than a cricket score!!
Dear me . I really am sad now. Zim deserve much better.
Even foreighn swearwords get deleated. Cool or what.
Just read 35 all out. That really is desperate stuff.
Shake my head and sigh.
I feel desperate now.
I think it'll get worse before it gets better.
i'm glad Sri lanka didn't bat first. Still "we might win. "

Well Sri Lanka took just 9.2 overs to knock up a quick 40 to take out the match, Jayantha finished with 28*.

it´s difficult to know exactly what they can do - some sort of mediation may be the only thing they can do and it´s not likely to be enough
