 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.
