What is happening to cricket? We saw 297 runs a few days back and now there’s 344. Yes your read that right. Zimbabwe just scored 344 runs against the lowly Gambia in their ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Sub Regional Africa Qualifier Group B match. Leading from the front was their captain and the inspiring Sikander Raza. Raza scored 133 scoring his century in just 33 balls becoming the first Zimbabwean player to score a century in T20I.
