BAN vs ZIM Live Cricket Score

32 OUT! LBW! Jayed has delivered for his skipper. The skies were getting overcast and the seamer has made apt use of the ball reversing. Good length delivery on middle stump, the captain gets rapped on the pads as he tries to defend but gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals for LBW and the umpire gives it straightaway. Masakadza has a long chat with Williams and eventually decides to walk off. Hawk Eye shows that to be dead plumb. Big wicket for Bangladesh immediately after the break.  85/3

10.4 OUT! BOWLED! Gone next ball! Full and straight, Chari gets down to play the slog sweep but misses. Unnecessary shot. Hamilton has been playing well at the other end and Chari could have just rotated the strike. However, he goes for a wild shot and pays the price. Spin takes the first wicket. How many more will it take?  35/1

16.2 OUT! The catch is legal! What a take from Nazmul Hossain Shanto. Excellent reflexes. Full and around middle, the arm ball, Taylor looked to defend but the ball darted in and flew off the inside edge. It went straight to short leg but he barely had time to react. Shanto caught it and then started to celebrate but only Rahim and he were celebrating. Taijul was amused. The umpire was not sure at all and referred it upstairs, after conferring with his partner. The soft signal was out and replays show why. The ball was actually dipping down onto Shanto but he managed to pick it up with his left hand! Superb stuff.  47/2

76.3 OUT! Sean Williams is out of here! Oh dear! No ton for him and he will be kicking himself. It was there for the taking but he will have to take the long walk back. Mahmudullah bowls this on middle and off, it spins away and also with some bounce. Williams looks to work it to the on side but gets an outside edge to it. Mehidy Hasan at first slip dives to his left and takes a very good catch. The skipper with the golden arm strikes. What a time for the hosts to get a wicket. The 72-run stand is finally broken.  201/5

47.3 OUT! That has gone through and the Cobra dance has begun! Nazmul gets the fourth wicket for Bangladesh. Nothing really special about that delivery, just plain lack of technique from the batsman. He has simply failed to read a straight ball. He comes half-forward to defend, probably in two minds, thinking whether this will turn away or go straight on. He is not to the pitch of the ball and as a result, misses it. The cherry goes past the inside edge, hits the back pad and then the timber. The bat came down very late, because Raza probably was thinking to play it from the crease initially. The 44-run stand has been disturbed. So the third partnership which has got a start but not carried on.  129/4

102.1 OUT! What a catch! Finally a breakthrough for Bangladesh. Very unlucky for the batsman but Nazmul Hossain takes another blinder. Tossed up ball on middle and leg, Regis looks to flick it away but the ball goes and sticks between the legs of Nazmul at short leg. The 60-run stand comes to an end. Bangladesh will look to wrap up the tail quickly now.  261/6

109.3 OUT! Caught behind! Lovely delivery by Taijul. He tosses this one up in the air and lands it outside off. The ball spins back in just a shade as Masakadza draws forward in defense. Maybe, he anticipated the ball to spin back in more than it did. As a result, it takes the outside edge and Rahim behind the stumps makes no mistake. Can Zimbabwe get to 300 from here?  268/7

112.5 OUT! Mavuta is dead plumb in front! Nazmul shows his smartness there. He follows up a couple of short deliveries with an arm ball landing fuller on off. Mavuta leans forward to defend but it skids past his bat and hits him on the pads. The appeal is made and the finger has gone up. The debutant knows that he is a dead duck and walks without even thinking of taking DRS. That's good to see. Many times we have seen tailenders taking it just for the sake of it.  273/8

117.2 OUT! Sharp catch at first slip! Fifer for Taijul, his 4th in Tests and he has his arms up in celebration. It's a generously tossed up delivery around off. It lands full and Jarvis is tempted into playing a big slog sweep across the line. But the ball spins away after landing, takes a thick outside edge and Mehidy Hasan stretches to take the catch over his head. Lovely reflexes. Zimbabwe still 18 shy of the psychological 300-run mark.  282/9

117.3 OUT! Taijul finishes with a 6-fer! A tossed up ball landing on middle and spinning away slightly. Chatara strides forward with his bat in front of the pads. He goes at it with firm hands and gets an outside edge. Liton Das at silly point shows great reflexes as he pouches the ball in no time. Peter Moor remains stranded on 63 as Zimbabwe are bowled out for 282!  282/10

8.3 OUT! Another wicket falls! Kyle Jarvis gets his man and some good bowling is rewarded. Length ball outside off, it moves away after pitching. Das plays away from his body and gets an outside edge towards the keeper. Chakabva goes to his right and takes a good catch. The umpire checks for the no ball but it is all fine.  14/2

3.5 OUT! Bowled 'em! There it is! Chatara has got his man. Nicely sets him up. Bowls this on a back of a length ball around off. Kayes doesn't play it with a straight bat. Looks to block it down from the crease but ends up chopping it back onto his stumps. Early breakthrough for Zimbabwe and some smart bowling from Tendai. Big wicket for Zimbabwe as Kayes was in outstanding form in the ODIs.  8/1

18.3 OUT! Massive blow to Bangladesh! Mominul is gone and now the home team has lost half their side with their score not even 50. A lovely off spinner dished out by Raza. He puts it just around off and Mominul is drawn forward in defense. But he doesn't account for the away spin much and as a result gets a nick behind. Hamilton Masakadza makes no mistake at first slip and Sikandar is running in celebration.  49/5

9.3 OUT! What a review from Masakadza! He was put under pressure from his players and a wise decision in the end. This was full and outside off, Nazmul drives without much footwork and fails to middle his shot. It flies behind and the keeper catches it. There seems to be some noise when it went through to Chakabva. The bowler was not quite sure but the men behind the stumps put in an appeal. The umpire stays put. Hamilton takes it up and the replay shows us a big spike. Shanto is out of here and Bangladesh lose their third wicket. Perhaps, the dog distracted the concentration of Shanto.  19/3

9.5 OUT! Another one bites the dusts! Oh my God! What are Bangladesh doing? Credit to Zimbabwe though. Chatara bowls this outside off, Mahmudullah feels for it away from his body as he has a tame push at it. Gets a big inside edge onto the off pole. Poor from someone like Mahmudullah to attempt such type of a shot early on. Zimbabwe on top!  19/4

28.2 OUT! A wicket next ball! Rahim is out of here! This is exactly what Zimbabwe wanted and Jarvis strikes. Similar length closer to the stumps, shoots up a bit. Rahim looks to push at it, is caught at the crease and the ball hits the shoulder of the bat before going to the keeper who takes a simple catch. Delight for the visitors and Rahim has to walk back with Bangladesh reeling.  78/6

38.2 OUT! A stubborn stand is broken! As things were looking to settle down, Sean Williams strikes gold. Fires this on the leg side. Hasan looks to turn it away but closes the bat face early. The ball takes a leading edge and flies towards Williams who takes the catch over his head. He smiles and has a surprised look on his face. Mehidy, meanwhile, is very hesitant in walking back to the pavilion, not sure why... Anyway, Bangladesh still trail by 174 and are 7 wickets down.  108/7

45.4 OUT! An absolute beauty by Sikandar to send Taijul packing. Drifting into the batsman, it lands around middle and off before turning away from Taijul. He tries to play the trajectory but the ball spin away to take a faint outside edge. Regis Chakabva makes no mistake, they appeal and the finger goes up. Raza gets his second wicket and is running in joy. Bangladesh trail by 151 runs.  131/8

49.5 OUT! Raza gets his third! He dishes out an off spinner on middle and it curls away just a bit after landing. Nazmul strides forward to defend but it takes the outside half of the bat and goes straight into the hands of Brian Chari at silly point. Sharp reflexes, that! Zimbabwe continue to roar.  143/9

51 OUT! Run out! Abu Jayed was told to be ready for a run but he needed to watch the ball also. It's flicked straight into the hands of mid-wicket and Jayed blindly comes out of the crease in search of a run. The fielder lobs up the ball to the bowler who takes the bails off immediately. Ariful is unhappy. BANGLADESH ALL OUT FOR 143!  143/10

36.1 OUT! LBW! Mehidy gets the big whale! Not a bad start for the hosts after the break. Might just spur them on. Fullish in length, Masakadza looked to play the reverse sweep but missed and was hit right in front. The bowler appealed and the umpire raised his finger. Hamilton walked across towards Williams, had a long chat but then eventually started walking back. Does not take the review. Hawk Eye shows that to be pitching in line and hitting the stumps. 50 not to be for Hamilton.  101/3

12.2 OUT! BOWLED! Beautiful bowling by Mehidy! The first breakthrough of the day and the crowd comes to life. Chari's drop does not count. Simply played down the wrong line. Full and outside off, Brian looks to defend, with his bat around off stump. But the ball does not turn in as expected, goes past the outside edge and hits the off stump! Zimbabwe are effectively 158/1.  19/1

18.2 OUT! Spectacular catch! If you live by the sword, you also die by it. Full and outside off, Taylor looks to slog it out of the park but does not quite time it properly. Imrul Kayes runs to his left, that too, backwards, keeps his eyes on the ball and then dives to take a wonderful catch. A quickfire knock from Taylor but Bangladesh are back into this.  47/2

41.5 OUT! BOWLED! Too cheeky for his own liking. Williams has made up his min pretty early to play the reverse sweep and on seeing that, Taijul bowls it a touch too full. The southpaw is not able to connect and misses. Timber... The visitors are effectively 260/4.  121/4

43.3 OUT! BOWLED! Spinning into middle stump, Raza misses it completely and it has gone through his defenses. Big wicket for Bangladesh. Raza was taking the game away from them.  130/6

42 OUT! Two in two! Moor bags a duck. All of a sudden, Taijul has 3. Just before this ball, Mahmudullah got an extra man near the bat, a silly point and a squarish short point. Taijul then landed this around leg and forced Moor to play with an open bat-face. Moor tries to play it slightly towards the off side but in the process, hands a simple catch straight into the bread-basket of Liton Das at silly point. Taijul will be on a hat-trick next over.  121/5

64.2 OUT! GONE! Couldn't keep it down. Regis is livid with himself. The bowling change does the trick. Tossed up just outside off, Chakabva smacks it to the covers. It's in the air and it's straight into the hands of Mahmudullah positioned there. Timely strike, the hosts will look to wrap things up quickly now.  172/8

62.5 OUT! It is plumb indeed! Lovely bowling from Mehidy. Kept troubling him throughout the over by taking it away. Gets this one to spin in and catches him in front. Bowls this on off. Wellington misses his flick and gets hit on the pads. The players put in an appeal and the umpire raises his finger. Zimbabwe opt for the review and replays show us three reds.  165/7

65 OUT! Mavuta departs in the search for quick runs. Slow, loopy and full on off, Mavuta backs away and looks to go big downtown. Gets a lot of air, but clearly not enough distance. Hands a rather simple catch to Ariful Haque at mid off. He settles himself under it and takes it well.  173/9

65.4 OUT! Bangladesh have wrapped things up here. Taijul Islam plucks the final wicket. Bowls the arm ball on middle, it keeps coming in with the angle. Chatara goes back to play at it but he doesn't expect the ball to come at such pace. Gets rapped on the back pad and the finger goes up. Tendai, for the sake of it, reviews it and it's taken upstairs. Replays show it's pad first, then bat, so he's out of here. ZIMBABWE ARE BOWLED OUT FOR 181 AND SET A TARGET OF 321!  181/10

23 OUT! LBW! Successful review by Zimbabwe and they have their first wicket. That is the problem on such pitches - BOUNCE. Short and outside off, spinning in, Das goes back to pull but the ball does not bounce as much as he expects it to. He misses and is hit high on the thigh pad. Raza appeals, appeals and further extends his appeal. Umpire Kettleborough thinks for a long while but then shakes his head. Hamilton Masakadza and Raza have a long chat and eventually, the skipper signals for the review. Replays roll in. Legal ball. No inside edge. Now, Hawk Eye. Hit in line and... HITTING THE STUMPS! Not even umpire's call. To the naked eye, it seemed like going over the top. But even yesterday, Wellington Masakadza was hit around the groin and adjudged LBW. Finally a breakthrough for Zimbabwe. Das never looked comfortable in his 75-ball battle. The equation now reads - 265 runs, 9 wickets.  56/1

36.5 OUT! BOWLED AROUND HIS LEGS! Raza is flying! His second wicket. Full and outside leg, Kayes gets down to sweep but misses the length of the ball. It hits his glove and then rolls on to hit the timber behind! Zimbabwe won't mind. A bit unlucky for Kayes and he walks back, pauses for a moment, looks at the giant screen for the replay and then continues, shaking his head. Big blow again.  83/3

27.3 OUT! Chops it on! Jarvis finally gets a wicket. On a length outside off, Mominul looks to defend it to the off side but is too close to the ball. It moves away a touch, takes the inside edge and hits the leg stump. Disappointing match for Mominul Haque.  67/2

42.3 OUT! Caught at short leg and Bangladesh are in all sorts of trouble! Really unfortunate for the captain. Full and outside off, Mahmudullah looks to sweep but misses the ball. It bounces a touch higher, hits the glove, then deflects onto the helmet and later, lobs to short leg! Craig Ervine, the substitute for Peter Moor, is over there. No doubts in the mind of anyone whether that is out. The skipper departs. Is this the beginning of the slide? Still 219 runs needed, 6 wickets in hand.  102/4

46.5 OUT! That is a sharp catch and it is Sikandar Raza again! Not with the ball but in the field now. Mavuta has joined in on the wickets party. Short and outside off, Shanto goes back and cuts it through the covers. But Sikandar Raza over there, dives to his right and takes a stinger! FIRST TEST WICKET FOR MAVUTA and with that, it is LUNCH ON DAY 4!  111/5

54.3 OUT! That is a big, big wicket! Mavuta has his second and boy, this game might be all over in this session. Full and outside off, Rahim, being a compulsive sweeper goes after this one, with hard hands. But he cannot keep it down. It flies in the air towards deep backward square leg where Wellington Masakadza keeps his eyes on the ball and takes it! Something falls down, hence we feel that he has put it down but when he gets up, he has the cherry in his hand. Those were his glasses that fell. Bangladesh sink further.  132/6

63.1 OUT! Brilliant catch by Regis Chakabva and Zimbabwe have won a match! Stop the press. I repeat, stop the press. By how many runs, does not matter. They have won, which is a rare thing in itself. That too, a Test match. Full and outside off, Ariful gets down on a knee and looks to play the slog sweep but hits this high in the air. It is actually a caught-and-bowled chance but the keeper calls for it, runs all the way towards the bowler and takes it in front of Wellington! Then he uproots two stumps and takes them for himself. ZIMBABWE WIN BY 151 RUNS!  169/10

59 OUT! Caught behind! Third one for the leggie! He is running through this line-up now. Beautifully bowled. Full and outside off, Mehidy lunges to defend but the ball spins away, takes the outside edge and then goes to the keeper. The visiting side appeals and up goes the umpire's finger! Hasan does not even bother to review.  150/7

59.5 OUT! Number 8 falls! Wellington gets a wicket now, HIS FIRST IN TESTS. Full and outside off, Taijul looks to swing across the line, aiming to clear the leg side boundary. However, the ball spins in and goes off the inner half of the bat. Hence, he does not get the distance and Brendan Taylor takes a good running catch running backwards.  151/8

60.1 OUT! LBW! Zimbabwe are just a wicket away from a memorable win. Full and outside off, Nazmul came forward to defend but missed it and was hit on the pads. There was a loud appeal and umpire Kettleborough raised his finger. Nazmul immediately signalled for the review and the first check was for the overstepping which was fine. Then the next check was for the inside edge. This was a bit close. There seemed to be a spike on the Snickometer when the ball passed the bat but umpire Dharmasena, who is the third umpire, was convinced there was no inside edge. Now for Ball Tracking. Impact was umpire's call and the ball was clipping the stumps, meaning umpire's call again!  155/9
