The Zimbabweans were in good batting form in what play there was against NewZealand A at Bristol, but were frustrated by rain from pressing home theiradvantage. The New Zealanders started well with Marshall (76) and Papps (40)putting on 122 for the first wicket and reached 173-3 in 41 overs.Under the Duckworth-Lewis system the Zimbabweans had to score 194 to win in41 overs. With Murray Goodwin, who hit 61 n.o. from 65 balls, in the goodform he has enjoyed almost all summer that target seemed to be well withinreach. However a further shower put an end to play with the score at 128-2after just 22 overs – and as the minimum 25 overs had not been completed thematch was abandoned withouit result.
