Moment of brilliance in a not so brilliant series.

So, the clash of the titans series is over and it was a series that ended Zimbabwe 4 Kenya 1. It hardly sounds like the most exciting series ever does it. Can’t have been worse than the England vs Australia series though.

Anyway, in today’s last game of the series there was a moment of brilliance from Zimbabwe opener Hamilton Masakadza. He went in to bat today and scored 178* off 167, the 11th highest ODI score ever. The joint holder of the highest ODI score ever 194*, Charles Coventry (who’s name sounds like it should be somewhere in a Victorian novel) was also playing for the hosts Zimbabwe, though ironically he only made 25.

So congrats Hamilton Masa…somethingorother on your big total and would you like a British passport?
