We def Zimbabwe by a few runs.
Did anyone see the paper about the guy from Bramuda who got 2/32 of 10 against England including KP. Still lost by over 200.

I'm sure the Kiwi's were taking the game very seriously too :roll: South Africa were lucky to beat Ireland after being 8/90 odd. They still only managed 194 thanks to Andrew Hall. I don't think they'd be panicking though.

Bangladesh aren't that bad. They beat Australia in a game more serious than this one. Wouldn't surprise me if they made the Super 8's. While they aren't quite up there with the top 8 nations, they are a class above the rest of the minnows IMO.

relevent as the results of the NAB cup matches in AFL.

Yes, it's similar to the NAB Cup in a way. The poor old lower teams can't take a break. If they win it doesn't mean anything, and if they lose it's an indication they will have a poor season.
