http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Thomas-George-Burrows-c93472o score a run and went down on his overnight tally of four.
Opener T Duffin and middle-order batsman SM Ervine then hammered a stupendous partnership as they took the score to 300 runs. The two batsmen completely dominated the bowlers as they ripped apart their defences and troubled the fielders.
The bowlers were completely outplayed and left without a plan against this outstanding batting duo. This was the partnership that tilted the game in favour of the Matabeleland Tuskers.
The partnership finally came to an end on the departure of Duffin, who was run out after scoring 96 runs. 31 runs later, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SC-Williams-c2464 became the next batsman to lose his wicket after he had belted 17 runs.

This was a big partnership and with Ervine still standing, the fielding side was threatened beyond belief as the batsman had the potential to mould a commendable partnership with anyone.
While skipper, KO Meth clobbered only 11 runs, RG Querl smashed 23 runs to play an important role in helping his side amass 518 with Ervine unbeaten on a knock of 153.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gates-c58585 of h**l upon their rivals by taking four and three wickets, and reducing them to 88 for eight by the end of the day.
