Australia have a better looking squad than SA but hoping SA can win it.

btw

Tri-series similar to this one need to become a more regular thing. Aka.. A strong team(A), middle tier team(B) and developing team(C) rather than the (boring) SL, India an Pak tri-series constantly happening.

It's win, win really.
Team (A) get to test their depth and have a decent hit out against a good team
Team (B) get to try and prove themselves against a top ranked nation
And Team (C) obviously benefit hugely.

It's worth noting that the entire point of the tour is to give Zimbabwe much needed games whilst having a pre-season type warm-up. A tri series just means that Team (C) (who doesn't necersarily have enough money to host a tour) Can participate in more international games without being the center of attention.

tl;dr Tri Series = good, Internationals between Pakistan, Sri Lanka & india = bad.

Totally hammered, even the Yorkshire lads didnt do too well for England.

Unlike the Yorkshire team who made 610 - 6 dec with Adam Lyth top scoring with 251. This puts them in a strong position again Lancashire, day 4 is going to be interesting.

It's really weird seeing your country doing so badly when your county is going so well.

Even more weird when you find out that Zimbabwe beat Aus too, that's quite shocking although I'm worried that Zimbabwe would beat England too :P

Thanks for the updates Bob!!!
