South Africa beat Zimbabwe by an innings and 120 runs on the second day of a four-day, day-night Test at St George’s Park on Wednesday.
After being bowled out for 68 in reply to South Africa’s first-innings 309/9 declared, Zimbabwe then collapsed from 54/0 to 121 all out to lose inside five sessions.
Twitter had a ball as the wickets tumbled and Zimbabwe were bowled out twice in one day. Here’s a look:
Zimbabwe’s sorry state of affairs
New lows for @ZimCricketv , two steps forward then 4 steps backwards, Taylor out please #SAvZIM

Two-tier league needed
I think it's about time for the @ICC to introduce two divisions in Test cricket. Top 5 & bottom 5 with promotion & relegation after every 2 years. #SAvZIM

New Year resolution
That does it. One of my new year's resolutions is to get serious with cricket. At Zim's rate and standards, I know @ZimCricketv will select me. #SAvZim @StarfmZimbabwe
