Opening post

Final one of the series.

Would be nice if one of the ladies scored a 50.

After this Zimbabwe Women host West Indies women. ODIs to be played at HSC and T20s at Takashinga.

Yeah a 50 from someone would be awesome. So would winning a toss and batting first for once πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

The ODIs are part of the ODI championship or whatever it’s called. Having a bit of meaning to it is better than some random bilateral. The ladies are on the way up in life πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ˜‚

I bet Zim would have bowled first even if they had won the toss.

Mayor Coltart must have provided them a two headed coin to discredit the toss. Probably πŸ˜‚

Looked leg sidey that πŸ˜‚ take it though.

Chipare is slingier than she used to be. Used to have a lovely action, classic high arm and pitch it on the money every time.

Lost by 14 runs, missed opportunity there probably.

Failed to catch a single delivery, but sure looks like it was an entertaining game.

Despite losing this was a great performance. I never thought they had it in them to push SA like this. Well done πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Moving Mayers down the order paid off. They should probably keep her there.

Kelis finally scored some runs! We can't really blame the braids/weave for her recent slump anymore can we? πŸ˜‚ Looking forward to see how she goes against the West Indies.

Plenty of positives to take from this series despite the whitewash.

There is a lot to take from the series. I knew it would be a whitewash but also expected a couple of 70 all out in 10 overs kinds of games πŸ˜‚

Yesterday they kept up with the rate probably until the 15th over then lost two set batters in quick succession. Struggled from there. Definitely can say it was a missed opportunity and with more games they will learn what they needed to get them over the line.
