England vs Zimbabwe 1st Test Live Scores | ENG vs ZIM Four Day Test Day 2 Live Scores & Commentary

498 from England on day 1. Do we need to say more? Zimbabwe had a Test win in Bangladesh. But they have been humbled today. The openers took little time at the start and then pounced on anything loose. They scored quickly and got to their tons with elan. Pope came in and just continued the same. He dominated the bowling and became the third one to score a 100. Zimbabwean bowlers looked hapless and even Root seemed set for a long haul. But the second new ball brought some respite. Initially the second new ball was taken for runs. But then Muzarabani got rid of Root off a short ball. Brook came in and has taken his time. In a way Zimbabwe have spent much of James Anderson's 21-year 188-Test career looking in from the outside. They were there at the very beginning being the opposition on his Test debut at Lord's in 2003. And then quite suddenly they were gone. That series remains the last time Zimbabwe played England in Test cricket. Km Punk Live Match. Now more than two decades later they are back in the United Kingdom. There will be no Anderson charging in from the Pavilion End; it's almost coming to a year since he retired. There will be no Nasser Hussain walking out in captain's blazer; he will instead be behind a microphone in the commentary box. What awaits Zimbabwe isn't familiarity but a return to the rhythms of Test cricket a format they've been busy at this year. Km Punk. Crictalks Live Match Today. Zimbabwe began the year with Tests against Afghanistan Ireland and Bangladesh even registering a memorable win in Sylhet but the road ahead only gets steeper. Starting now at Trent Bridge they enter a phase of high-stakes Test cricket against the bigger teams with home series against South Africa and New Zealand to follow. How they cope and hold themselves together could shape the narrative of their rebuilding chapter. Crictalks Live. Iqbal Sports. It is no doubt going to be a steep challenge for the visitors. A 138-run defeat in their warm-up game against a modest County Select XI has already underlined the gap and stepping up against England's Test side will be an entirely different proposition. England would be wise to not underestimate Zimbabwe This is not the seasoned. Swaggering bowling unit of the Anderson-Broad years. Experience in the bowling department is thin the batting has blown hot and cold and their captain Ben Stokes who's coming back after a hamstring surgery is unlikely to offer the full all-round package. The team as a whole hasn't also captured the public's imagination lately and it's no surprise then that head coach Brendon McCullum has called for "a bit of humility" and for the side to reconnect with the fans once more. A commanding win over Zimbabwe will go a long way in doing just that. It doesn't matter that the contest feels one-sided that it's a four-day Test or that it doesn't carry World Test Championship points. Or that it's perhaps just the appetizer before the main course a five-Test epic against India later in the season. Iqbal Sports Live. Iqbal Sports. What matters is that Zimbabwe are playing England once again in Test cricket. That another English summer begins. And that a new generation of Zimbabwe cricketers many of whom have heard more about playing in England than experienced it now get their turn on the stage at one of the sport's more storied venues ready to be part of the conversation again. What to expect: There's always something for the pacers at Trent Bridge. Josh Tongue already has 13 wickets in the two county matches he's played at this venue this season but it's not to say that run-making has been impossible. In the four county matches at this venue this season there have been three results and one draw. A bit of rain is forecast for Saturday.
