Full commentary
6:11pm And that is all from our coverage! Thanks for joining us. Catch you for the T20Is.
Porterfield: We set out to win the series and obivously at 2-0 to win it 3-0, pretty good. Started back in May, quite a few cricketers have come in. It's really pleasing that the lads are coming in and making contributions. There's depth in that pool of players and the confidence is right up there.
Murtagh: I'm getting on a bit now but still enjoying my cricket. These boys keep me young. Still enjoying it. They're good kids, they're all desperate to learn. Adair the other day. And Shane looks like he's been playing for years.
Tim Murtagh is the Man of the Series.
Masakadza: We haven't played our best cricket, credit to Ireland. They showed us up and put us under the pump. We need to make better decisions under pressure. That's what Ireland have done, every time they're on top, they haven't let us come back.
5:58pm Handshakes as Ireland seal the series with a six-wicket win. They have Zimbabwe nothing today. A relentless attack with the new ball, aided by some irresponsible shots from Zimbabwe's top order, meant the visitors had no chance to ever think of a reasonable acceleration. This meant a total under 190, right in the comfort zone, and all of Ireland's batsmen barring Balbirnie got their little contributions in to seal the victory.
