42.5 to B Muzarabani, That's that, Zimbabwe are all out for 166. Was a short of a length ball aimed at Muzarabani's body. He is cramped for room and can only heave it to mid-on.. 166/10
1023663.60435020
3.1 to TS Kamunhukamwe, Has short midwicket hung on? Oh, he has. That's a top catch. The umpires want to give it another check. Sharp short of a length bat on off and middle. He looks for a pull, but gets it off the splice meekly towards Dockrell. He dives forward and replays confirm the catch was clean. Early wicket for Ireland.. 15/1
3.3 to M Shumba, Two wickets in three balls for Little. On a length with some shape away from the left-hander. He pushes at it, no feet whatsoever, as the ball catches the outside edge and the wicketkeeper takes a regulation catch to his left. Shumba's vigil lasts all of two balls.. 15/2
3.5 to J Gumbie, Third wicket in the over for Little and Zimbabwe are in all sorts now. Length ball that shapes back in ever so slightly. Gumbie is struck on the crease and feebly pushes at the ball. He only manages a thick bottom edge with the ball crashing into off and middle stump.. 16/3
5.6 to Sikandar Raza, A fourth for Little and this time it is the big wicket of captain Raza. Zimbabwe are on the ropes in Harare. Little gets the length ball going his away outside off stump. Raza thinks this is an opportunity to score some runs and eyes a cut, but does not account for the in-ward movement. Eventually, can only manage a thick inside edge and his off pole goes for a walk. 19/4
37.5 to WP Masakadza, There's No. 5 for Little. On a length with a hint of tail back into Masakadza who whips it but straight to midwicket, who pouches it with glee. Little goes large in Harare and isn't he pumped up.. 144/8
39.2 to R Ngarava, Wicket no. 6 for Little and the middle stump has gone for a walk. A little bit of tail back in for Little who keeps it wicket to wicket. Ngarava misses, Little hits and the end is nigh for Zimbabwe. 148/9
813013.75324010
21.5 to B Mavuta, huge appeal, and given! Hard length on off, and this seems to nip back a smidgen. Keeps a little low too, and Mavuta, trying to swipe it away, is beaten by how the ball skidded through. Gets pinned in front of the stumps and the umpire, after a bit of thought, raises his finger. Did hit him on the back thigh but the umpire felt it would have gone on to hit the stumps. Zimbabwe six down!. 70/6
503006.00143000
1013413.40402100
18.2 to C Madande, Madande falls! Floated up a touch just outside off and it entices Madande to go for the slog. Gets into an awkward position, though, and cannot extend his arms fully. Skies it and the sweeper does brilliantly to run around to his left from deep square leg and complete the catch. Madande is livid with himself but Ireland will not mind this one bit!. 64/5
20512.5090010
35.6 to RP Burl, Edged and Tector breaks the partnership. That was pushed much quicker outside off stump and the extra bounce does Burl in. He shapes up for the cut, but is beaten by that bounce and a thin edge is snapped up by keeper. 133/7

0.1 to A Balbirnie, gone first ball, oh my! Back of a length delivery on middle and off that seems to skid through. Balbirnie is caught on the crease and has prod at it, more in hope than anything else. The ball kept a little low and breezed past the bat, sending off stump flying!. 0/1
1022322.30473010
9.2 to PR Stirling, the middle stump goes for a toss this time, though! Another probing delivery, perhaps a little closer to off stump. The length means that Stirling has to come forward to play it. The ball jags back just enough to exploit the gap between bat and pad, and the middle stump is out of the ground. Cartwheeling, in fact! Massive moment in the game!. 29/2
32.1 to LJ Tucker, Tucker chops on! Dug in short outside off again. Tucker tries to punch it through the off side but does not go at it with the conviction he usually does. The feet go nowhere either, and that, coupled with the angled bat face, means that he only drags it back onto his stumps. There is still some life left in this game!. 132/5
704716.71237020
39.4 to GH Dockrell, straight up and Raza holds on! Back of a length on off stump and this one just stands up a smidgen. Dockrell, trying to whack it over mid wicket, cannot get on top of it and miscues it. Goes a mile up but when it comes down in the mid wicket region, Raza gobbles it up. A bit of an anti-climax, really!. 166/6
1003723.70363000
19.3 to HT Tector, Cleans him up with a ripper! That is legspinning royalty. Lands the legbreak on middle stump and gets it to turn sharply away ever so late. The ball crashes into the stumps. A timely wicket for Zimbabwe just when these two were taking the game away.. 81/3
29.4 to C Campher, Mavuta knocks over Campher! Mavuta holds his nerve and bowls it similarly full. If anything, this might have been fuller and slightly quicker. Campher swipes across the line but because of how full the ball is, it sneaks under his bat and smashes into middle stump. A superb 66-run knock but Campher will be gutted having not taken his team past the finish line here!. 124/4
