44.3 to DAS Gunaratne, good length on leg stump, and he backs away to chip the ball on the off side. He doesn't find the power he's looking for and it's gone up, the ball has a lot of hang time, enough time for Williams to run back from mid off and compose himself. Takes a diving catch. Another wicket goes, Gunaratne walks back disappointed. 260/4
44.6 to BKG Mendis, short and outside off stump, and Mpofu takes another! First-ball duck for Kusal Mendis. He went for the big one from the first ball and it wasn't to be. The pull wasn't well connected and Ervine was positioned at deep midwicket for that shot. Wickets falling in a pile now. 263/5
503216.40122020
49.6 to AD Mathews, and Zimbabwe finish with a wicket! , short, slow and outside off, Mathews tries to cut that over point. Not enough power in the delivery nor the shot, soft dismissal. Just the way Zimbabwe would've wanted to finish the innings.. 300/6
905616.22193110
43.5 to WU Tharanga, inside-edge and bowled him! He tries one more slog onto the leg side but it's full and wide outside off, he plays that away from his body and the ball finds the inside-edge of his bat. Crashes into the base of middle stump and Tharanga has to go. He was just finding his rhythm. 257/3

35.2 to MD Gunathilaka, played too early. Misses it altogether and sees the off stump knocked back. The slowness of the surface has done in Gunathilaka. Shaped to pull that away from outside off, in hindsight, he may have been better off looking to rock back and cut instead.. 209/1
37.5 to N Dickwella, moving around too much, and this time he's gone! oh, wait, he's referring that. Mathews asks Dickwella to wait and they ask for a review. The ball, by the way, was full on middle and he moved to the off side too soon to look for a fine padde down leg side. The ball goes under his bat and hits his toes dead in front of middle stump. The review indicates no bat. Pitched on middle and off, and would've smashed middle stump. Another classy innings comes to an end. 216/2

17.6 to TK Musakanda, edged! taken! the DLS equation changes completely once again. Short and on the fifth-stump line outside off stump, he pokes at that shot and the ball flies to the keeper. He moves to his right and collects the ball. It was travelling, some good place. A thick edge. 128/3
704115.85184100
22.2 to SC Williams, stumped!, a faster one this time, good length and wide, and the batsman races down the pitch to smash that away, misses the slog over the bowler completely, and the keeper gets the bails off in a flash.. 145/4
604036.66155000
9.4 to H Masakadza, there's the wicket. The young man has cleaned up Masakadza. Lured by the flight, looked to biff this across the line but the googly spun back in through the gap between bat and pad to smash into the stumps. What confidence to bowl the wrong'un at a time when the batsman were on a rampage.. 67/1
11.4 to SF Mire, over-aggression has cost Mire here. Premeditates the sweep, trying to be too cheeky but he's hit this full toss straight to short fine leg. Hit too well, that's a dolly.. 82/2
25.2 to Sikandar Raza, What. A. Brilliant. Catch., very full on middle and Raza hits it back above the bowler's head. But that's only if the bowler stood still. He instead jumps atleast a couple of feet in the air and takes a sharp return catch. That wicket completely belongs to the bowler. That ball was travelling. 172/5
3.2045113.5046030
29.1 to MN Waller, full on off stump and he slogs it!. Its a slog but not well timed, he holes out to the deep fielder on the leg side. Good catch given how dark it is. Waller went for the glory shot, there. 215/6
