ZIMBABWE TOUR; MATCH 3; Rhino wins the third game by 6 wickets. Tanzania won the toss and elected to bat first and once again a good start from Tanzania openers Abhi patwa and Jatin Darji who scored a quick 40 runs partnership in the opening powerplay overs. The foundation was well set for a big score as the 2 batsmen looked in good form. Abhik patwa got dismissed in the 6th over and fellow opener Jatin Darji in the 9th over with score in a good balance of 60/2 in 8.3 overs. Though then came the decline as Tanzania middle order batting once again crumbled with 4 wickets lost in the space of scoring just 8 runs. The pressure was built on the tail to put in a respectable score for Tanzania to defend. Ashish Kamania and Zamoyoni Ramadhani once again added some value with their hard hitting down the order thus Tanzania finishing their inning with a score of 129/8 in 20 overs. Rhino''s chase began well and despite a couple of early wickets lost. It was the 2nd wicket partnership between T.Kataino and TK Musakanda that dented the hopes of Tanzania to recover in defending a low total. The bowlers did well to restrict rhinos particularly spinners Riziki kiseto and Muhammad Ali bowling well earning 1 wicket each. Rhino convincingly chased the target in 16.2 overs and taking a 2-1 lead in the series. Tanzania will play it''s 4th game on the tour tomorrow with a lot of postmortem going tonight in the camp and rectifying the mistakes done in the first three games. We will bounce back. Let''s support our boys |
