Heath Streak held fort with the other tailenders and managed to survive the likes of Barnes, Lohmann, Botham and Laker till the clock struck 5 and they match ended as a draw.

Zimbabwe ended their winless campaign on a high and performed well in what will be their last match as an independent cricket team in LAB.

Ian Botham scored a peerless 178 in the first innings thus scoring a century for the first time since Season 1. He bowled well too but without luck due to his team-mates dropping as many as 5 catches off his bowling.​

What Are You Trying To Say
 
What Are You Trying To Say

That Zim haven't won any match this season ...

I've seen since Season 2 that Zimbabwe aren't strong enough to win against other legends though they've beaten England & Sri Lanka in Season 2 but aren't consistent enough despite being a competitive team. From Season 4 onwards, they'll be merged with Rest of the World. This will make the mismatches less and ROTW combined with Zimbabwe can really cause some upsets against top ranked teams.

Thats a good idea .;) it will form one of the worlds greatest team ever .
