 Zimbabwe B v Australian XI - 3 day match - at Bulawayo - 1991/2 - Zimbabwe B 2nd Innings


Pitch: 111 (6A,7A,4)

Weather: 4,3,2

Toss: Australian XI

Match Drawn

Man of the Match: T.M.Moody


Zimbabwe B batted much better in their 2nd innings and ended up batting out the day to force a Draw.

The Australian XI bowlers were frustrated by a pitch which remained a Normal Wicket and refused to wear on the final day.

Captain Steve Waugh left the field on the final day with a recurrence of his troublesome groin injury which plagued him throughout his career, leaving the captaincy in the hands of Geoff Marsh.

 Zimbabwe B v Australian XI - 3 day match - at Bulawayo - 1991/2 - Match Preview


Bulawayo plays host to a 3 day warmup game between Zimbabwe B and an Australian XI.

The match is an important opportunity for some of the players on the fringe of both national team's XI's heading into a 3 match Test series.


Pitch: 111 - This pitch could be pretty lively for at least the first morning, and is likely to stay fast paced well into the second day. Thereafter batting should present no great perils at least until the final stages when the bounce may become a problem.

Day 1 Starting Pitch: 6A - Hard Pitch with Excessive Bounce

Day 1 Weather: 4 - Cloudy, some Sunny Intervals
