    10.5 taken at deep-backward point. Bennett can only stand and watch in disbelief. It's a big boundary there, and he finds the man bang on. Nahid bowled it short and wide of off, and Bennett looked to capitalise on the width. But his powerful slash ended in the fielder's hands 90/3
    3.3 taken at deep square leg. It's actually a pretty neat shot. He reads the length - short. He reads the line - on his hips. He looks to short-arm flick it away. The wristwork is eye-catching. But these are big boundaries. 37/1
    8.5 pulls the short ball but finds deep midwicket, that's the longest boundary here. Myers' struggle is over. He never got going. 75/2
    13.4 slower ball, and caught at long-off. Saifuddin lets out a roar. The change of pace works, and so does the line, which is on or just outside off. Raza looks to loft this full delivery down the ground, but doesn't get the placement right - perhaps because he was beaten by the lack of pace or because the ball was too full 116/4

    17.2 finds the man at short fine leg. Nahid's impact continues. There's hardly any reaction from him as soon the wicket falls, though. Taskin, meanwhile, wrings his right hand in pain. Shumba decided to get across the stumps and try the scoop. The ball was ideal for it too - it was a low full toss outside off - but Shumba couldn't clear the fielder 139/5
    17.3 Nahid will be on a hat-trick. He bowls on a length around off, and invites the tailender to go for the big shot. Musekiwa obliges, and ends up lofting it straight to long-on 139/6

    3.3 noise as ball passes the bat and the umpire gives it. Short ball cramping the right-hander. Saif goes for the front foot pull and might have got a bottom edge through to the keeper 25/1
    3.6 done by the short ball once again. Tanzid looks to pull a ball that is too close to his body against a bowler known for his disconcerting bounce. and he only ends up popping a catch to the keeper jogging back. Zimbabwe's quicks have been on point so far. 30/2
    4.4 taken at mid-off. The on the up drive is a risk against a tall fast bowler. It only works when he makes a mistake. Here Muzarabani doesn't. Hits a good length looking for the top of off stump. Finds an errant shot and a wicket too. 34/3
    9.3 slog sweep and its taken on the deep midwicket boundary. Towhid has to drag it from well outside off. Also Shumba isn't giving a lot of pace on the ball. The batter has to create it himself and doesn't do enough. 73/4
    17.1 strikes first ball. This should be it for Bangladesh. He goes for the swat off this short delivery climbing slightly wide of off, but ends up skying the ball miles up. Evans, at extra cover, backtracks to take it with a reverse cup 130/7
    10.3 an underarm throw, and gone!! Raza takes his time, and does it very calmly. He bowled very full and slow at Nurul, who nudged the ball from off towards midwicket. Raza went to his right, waited, and on seeing Nurul was miles away from the crease from the non-striker's end, aimed at the stumps to land another blow 78/5
    16.4 got him!! Dropped last ball, but Mahedi doesn't last long. He got across the stumps early, and Muzarabani followed. The latter went on a fullish length and wide of off, and Mahedi ended up slicing it to mid-off 130/6
    17.5 caught at fine leg. Another wicket for Ngarava. The short ball gets him a wicket again. He bangs this on the pitch on middle and off, and Saifuddin swivels while pulling. The ball takes off from the top edge, and is taken comfortably by Shumba 134/8
    18.1 taken after the ball is sent up a hundred miles in the air. The man came in from deep square leg, and kept waiting and waiting, before the ball dipped on to him. Muzarabani bowled it short, and Nasum went for the pull after making room. But he got a top edge, and sent the ball way up 138/9

    18.6 bowled him!! The off stump comes off. Muzarabani is pumped up. Zimbabwe win by 32 runs. A yorker on off, and that's too good for Nahid. The length was too full for his attempted swing of the bat, and he was nowhere close to getting a touch 138/10
