Coventry just played a back foot drive off lee that went for 6. The zimmas are having a real crack early 0/21 off 4.
Tait dragged after 2

I stopped yelling at my telly during the go-slow to tell the missus that the Zimbabweans were crap, but they wouldn't "die wondering" when it came to batting...

If these two go for a while, then it could get a tad hairy...

That was a ripper shot by Coventry though.

He has made just over 800 runs from 32 knocks and a quarter of his runs came in 1 innings.

Who was his highest score against ?

EDIT - Charles Coventry's unbeaten 194 briefly stood as the highest score in an ODI until it was overtaken by Sachin Tendulkar. Incredibly, Zimbabwe still went on to lose that game as none of Coventry's team-mates could muster more than 37 and Bangladesh chased down 313 with more than two overs to spare.

Yeah, we get it, you chuck tantrums like a five year old. Most adults would have shot off a polite request via PM.

Most adults wouldn't have made a childish decision in the first place. Eh champ?

But enough of that.

Some terrible cricket shots for the last three balls. The last one costs him the wicket.

Lee sets new limits for looking like an idiot when celebrating a wicket. Well deserved wicket though.

We're at the end of the 7th over already!

How about you show a little appreciation and understanding for guys who give up their time to moderate the site instead of acting like a brat?

Channel 9 taking their coverage to new lows.

FTA continously gets worse, treat the viewers like garbage.

Thank goodness for Fox.

I can imagine, Pastings saunters in, and a batsman stops him half way through his run...

Worst case, you cop a 115-120 kmph bouncer...

Why would you do it to Brett Lee?
