5.2 to BJ Bennett, miscued again, and taken this time! Henry breaks the opening stand! This is dug in short again, and the ball gets a little big on Bennett as he looks to pull. He fails to control his stroke and the ball spoons up off the top edge. Jacobs calls for it early, having come in considerably off the deep backward square leg fence, and takes it comfortably in front of his face!. 37/1
16.4 to T Musekiwa, another short ball, another attempted pull but this time, Musekiwa bites the dust! The major difference from the previous ball is that this gets really big on Musekiwa. Almost up to the back shoulder, meaning that he only manages a top-edge on the swipe. Duffy settles under the high ball at fine leg and makes no mistake!. 98/6
19.6 to T Munyonga, holes out to deep backward square leg, and Zimbabwe finish bang on 120! Seems like another cutter into the track. Comes off slow, meaning that Munyonga has to muster all the pace and power. Drags his swipe a little and ends up picking out Chapman behind square!. 120/7

12.1 to W Madhevere, leg stump goes for a toss, and Milne takes out Madhevere! Hard length, zoning into middle and leg stump. Madhevere backs away, trying to carve it through the off side. Does not seem to pick the pace of the ball, though, and is incredibly late on the stroke. The ball whistles past his blade and then thunders into leg stump, sending it flying. Madhevere shakes his head in disappointment as he walks off, and NZ keep chipping away!. 71/3

15.6 to Sikandar Raza, Santner gets his opposite number, and that is a very, very soft dismissal! Back of a length outside off and this sticks in the surface. Spins away a little too and that squares up Raza completely as he looks to work to leg. Gets a tame leading edge and Chapman does the rest at extra cover. An uncharacteristically scrappy knock by the Zimbabwe skipper, and they sink further into trouble!. 93/5
201517.5052000
13.5 to RP Burl, soft, soft dismissal, and Burl's party is over! Angled in full on middle and off. Burl looks for the reverse but does not have enough room to extend his arms fully. Cloths it totally and offers the simplest of catches to Milne at backward point. Burl promised a lot, having gotten off to an excellent start, but could only contribute a cameo, at best!. 84/4

9.4 to C Madande, deceived in the air completely, and Ravindra is on the board! This is beautifully tossed up, and drops devilishly on the batter on a length on middle stump. Madande thinks he can reach it with a good stride forward but is nowhere close to the ball because of the late dip. The ball straightens a shade too and that takes it past the outside edge, with Madande also over-balancing. Seifert does the rest, and Zimbabwe lose their second in the tenth over!. 61/2

1.1 to TL Seifert, short, wide and slapped straight to cover! Not the best ball Muzarabani will ever bowl in his career, but he will not mind one bit. This sits up for Seifert, and the shot is on too. But he does not get under it fully, nor does he keep it down. Chips it straight to Musekiwa, and that is a massive moment to inject a bit of belief into Zimbabwean veins!. 5/1

8.3 to R Ravindra, in the air, and taken brilliantly by Muzarabani! Another shortish delivery and rather than swiping it away, Ravindra opts to ramp this. Does not quite get the power he wants, though, and that brings Muzarabani, stood at deep third, into play. He tracks the ball well, sprints forward and then gobbles up the chance with a lunge. Excellent grab, and Ravindra, after a nice, little innings, has to depart!. 64/2
