| Paul Stirling | 39 | 33 | 4 | 0 | 118.18 |
|
13.2 OUT! Stirling falls. Wellington has his second wicket. Tossed up ball, landing a touch short and holding up a bit off the surface, Stirling moves back to hit it through the line but it takes the top edge and goes towards extra cover. Craig Ervine settles underneath it and makes no mistake. The dangerman departs. 114/2

| Kevin O'Brien | 47 | 39 | 6 | 1 | 120.51 |
|
10.1 OUT! Outstanding catch to break the opening partnership of 89 runs. Well done, Milton Shumba. Flighted and full ball around Kevin O'Brien steps back to make room for the inside-out shot over extra cover. His shot though has more height than distance. Milton Shumba comes running forward and across from wide long off, puts in a dive and takes it inches above the ground. Excellent stuff, this should lift the confidence of Zimbabwe. 89/1

| Andy Balbirnie C | 36 | 22 | 4 | 1 | 163.63 |
|
17.2 OUT! Zimbabwe continue to make some late inroads here. Short in length and outside off, Andy Balbirnie camps back and smashes it in the air over covers. Wesley Madhevere is once again in action in the deep as he moves across swiftly to his right and takes the catch easily. Andy Balbirnie departs after playing a good hand. 147/4

| Shane Getkate | 12 | 9 | 0 | 1 | 133.33 |
|
16.3 OUT! Getkate holes out! Back of a length, around off, Shane camps back and tries to heave it over the leg side. The connection is not proper as it comes from the top half of his bat. Wesley Madhevere moves across to his left at deep mid-wicket and takes the skier safely. 144/3

5.1 OUT! Wesley Madhevere is gone too. Young runs in and digs in a short ball around off, Wesley hangs back to pull but it takes the splice of his bat and flies to the right of mid on. Shane Getkate moves across to his right and completes the catch easily. All the wickets have fallen from this end so far. 30/4

| Tadiwanashe Marumani | 4 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 100 |
|
1.1 OUT! A smart return catch. Very tame dismissal for Marumani. Mark Adair bowls from 'round the wicket and angles in a fuller delivery on middle, Tadiwanashe Marumani tries to work it on the leg side but gets a tame leading edge back to the bowler. Adair collects the catch easily and draws first blood. 7/1

| Regis Chakabva Wk | 11 | 8 | 2 | 0 | 137.50 |
|
3.2 OUT! Strangled down the leg side. Adair gets his revenge immediately. Not a wicket-taking delivery though. It's on a length and drifting down the leg side, Regis Chakabva tries to flick but gets a feather touch on it. Neil Rock collects and appeals, the bowler joins him too and the finger has gone up. Regis Chakabva shakes his head as he returns. A body blow to the visiting team. 21/2

| Dion Myers | 4 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 200 |
|
3.4 OUT! BOWLED! Hit him for a boundary and he will take his revenge immediately. A wonderful inswinging yorker, around leg, Myers fails to keep it out and finds his stumps rearranged. Zimbabwe staring down the barrel, 150 needed off 98 balls. 25/3
|

| Craig Ervine C | 28 | 30 | 3 | 0 | 93.33 |
|
13.4 OUT! Ervine bites the dust and that's the last recognized batsman for Zimbabwe getting dismissed. Simi Singh tosses it up and lands it full around middle, Craig Ervine shimmies down the track for a big shot down the ground but fails to get enough behind it. The ball goes aerially to long on and Mark Adair takes it safely. Only formalities left in this match now. 72/7
|

| Milton Shumba | 6 | 12 | 0 | 0 | 50 |
|
8.5 OUT! STUMPS ARE SHATTERED! Zimbabwe have now lost half their side. Excellent delivery from Barry McCarthy. He lands it on a good length around off and gets it to jag back in off the seam. Shumba plays all over it, leaves a big hole in his defense and the ball sneaks through to send the bails flying. It's one-way traffic at the moment. 48/5
|

| Donald Tiripano | 5 | 12 | 0 | 0 | 41.66 |
|
12.5 OUT! Tiripano is stumped! Smart from Rock. Full in length and outside off, Donald Tiripano winds for a big heave across the line but fails to connect. Neil Rock collects the ball, waits for the batter to make some movement and as soon as Donald Tiripano drags his back leg out, he takes the bails off. He appeals and the square leg umpire has given it out. 68/6

| Wellington Masakadza | 4 | 5 | 0 | 0 | 80 |
|
14.4 OUT! Given lbw, Getkate has two now. That looked very adjacent to the naked eye. Full in length, around middle and leg, Wellington Masakadza fails to work it around and is pinged on the pads. The appeal is made and the umpire has no hesitation in lifting his finger. Dead plumb. Ireland are two wickets away from sealing the series. 75/8

17.2 OUR! The off stump is pegged back. Mark Adair has a 4-wicket haul. He spears it in, full and straight, Blessing Muzarabani is late in taking his bat down and the off stump is obliterated. Can Mark Adair pick the final wicket to complete his 5-fer? 86/9
