Fielding disappoints Zimbabwe skipper Elton Chigumbura

Nelson,Feb 19 (IBNS): Zimbabwe skipper Elton Chigumbura on Thursday said he was disappointed with his side's fielding during their World Cup match against the UAE.

He said Zimbabwe's batting performance impressed him.

"Disappointed about the fielding, but our guys played well with the bat. I thought when Craig Ervine went into bat he was positive and brought the run-rate down and it made the job of the guy coming in easier,"  Chigumbura said during the post-match presentation ceremony.

"That's where we went wrong against South Africa. It's good to take the momentum from this game into the game against West Indies. Hopefully we can polish our fielding and have a good game in all departments," he said.

Zimbabwe defeated the UAE by four wickets in a Pool B match here.
