Another publicity stunt or just the nature of 20/20 cricket?
A group of full time professionals couldn't possibly lose to a bunch of semi-professionals if they were switched on or even half interested

Re: Cricket...Zimbabwe beats Australia by 5 wickets
I think it's more to do with the amount of overs. A bad start in the 50 over game can be clawed back with the talent Australia -and other good teams- have.
Early wickets, and a bad start in Twenty20 means there's not enough overs left to recover - unless you've good all rounders and a very short tail.

We can only hope that the ugly spector of match-fixing has not raised it's head in this tournament.

England had a comfortable win over Zimbabwe despite dropping a couple of sitters.
