10.20pm A win looked unlikely for Bangladesh as they stumbled to 139 for 6 in 30 overs, but how they've bounced back. Imrul Kayes played the innings of his life to make 144, and with support from Saifuddin haled them past 270. Then with the ball, they were ruthless as you'd expect them to be at home. Mustafizur stifled them early, then the spinners took over and choked Zimbabwe before nailing the final blow. Victory was never in doubt 30 overs into the chase, with the visitors threatening a late charge at no stage despite dew allowing the ball to slide onto the bat a lot easier.

Not all is lost yet for Zimbabwe. This is a long series and they can look back on a few positives. Jarvis finished with four for 37 while Chatara took three wickets and Mavuta got one. Zimbabwe's bowling unraveled in the last 10 overs. What they would be really concerned with is their fielding.

Imrul Kayes is the Man of the Match for his 144.

Mahmudullah to Jarvis, OUT

swings and misses. He bowled it from even behind the umpire. Oh, wait. No, there was a thin edge as confirmed by snicko. Thinnest of nicks, which means Jarvis has to walk back.
