Zimbabwe upbeat

Zimbabwe's star batsman Andy Flower admits that he feels `hollow' about reaching the Super Six without beating a Test-playing nation.

``We can beat any Test team, we do believe we can beat these sides,'' said Flower. ``It is up to us as the underdogs to upset them, but beating New Zealand the last time when we met, certainly gives us a bit of a psychological edge.'' The bowling attack lacks penetration, the 34-year-old lefthander conceded. ``It has been a problem for us recently, but we need to remember that Heath Streak is a world-class bowler, and he can take wickets against anyone.''
