Match Ended   
291/5 (47.3/50)
290/9 (50.0/50)
Zimbabwe beat Bangladesh by 5 wickets
That's it then from this match and it is Zimbabwe who have followed up their T20I series victory with an ODI series win as well, their first since 2017. There is still one game left in the ODI series and Bangladesh will be eager to come back stronger and end the tour on a positive note. That match will be played on Wednesday, the 10th of August at the Harare Sports Club and it will begin at 12.45 pm IST (7.15 am GMT). Our build-up though will begin much sooner. Till then, take care and goodbye!
Regis Chakabva, the captain of Zimbabwe says that it is better late than ever to get a century. He says that this series win is massive for them and they have been playing really good cricket. He adds that the key is to be positive and play with positive intent. He ends by saying that they will come again in the next match and play well and try to get the win.
The Bangladesh skipper, Tamim Iqbal says that the difference is that the opposition had two centurions but they didn't have a single one. Adds that they got off to a good start with the bat but then it went downhill and Mahmudullah and Afif Hossain batted well to get them towards a defendable total of 290. Says that the wicket was good but when the spinners came on it wasn't as easy as the last game and all credit goes to Zimbabwe to get the win. Ends by saying that they need to pull up their socks if they are to end the series with a win.
Sikandar Raza (3 for 56 & 117* off 127 balls) is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his brilliant all-round display. Raza says that to be part of something special with Zimbabwe is really good. He says that he is taking the award but praises Tony Munyonga and Regis Chakabva for their knocks. He also adds that the bowlers did well to restrict Bangladesh. He ends by saying that the experienced players are trying to set up a good platform for the younger ones to come in and take it from there.
The presentation ceremony...
Earlier in the game, Regis Chakabva put the opposition in to bat first but Bangladesh started off briskly with Tamim Iqbal finding the fence with regularity. But once he got out, wickets started to tumble and the visitors had to rebuild. It was then a steady stand between Mahmudullah and Afif Hossain that got Bangladesh back in the game. Mahmudullah scored 80 valuable runs and there were starts throughout the order but no one really went on to get a big score. Zimbabwe were sloppy in the field but their spinners, Sikandar Raza and Wesley Madhevere bowled extremely and picked up five wickets in between them to restrict the opposition to under 300 runs. Bangladesh started off well with the ball but they too were sloppy in the field. Hasan Mahmud was the start with the ball for them and their spinners bowled decently but just couldn't control the middle phase. Zimbabwe were once again thankful to Sikandar Raza for pulling them out of trouble but this time the skipper Regis Chakabva gave him ample support and Tony Munyonga added the finishing touches to seal the series 2-0.
Bangladesh will be scratching their heads at the moment and will be thinking how have they let this one slip out of their hands! Hasan Mahmud was simply brilliant with the new ball and sent back two batters very early in the innings. The others bowled well around him and the visitors were on top with the opposition 49 for 4. However, they were poor in the middle over and hardly created any chances, allowing the hosts to dictate play. They did break the stand between Raza and Chakabva but by then it was just too late. Their pacers, apart from Mahmud were handed a thrashing and they have now only pride to play for in this ODI series.
Zimbabwe have pulled off yet another great escape. They have gone from being 49 for 4 at one point to finishing the game off in style and with 15 balls to spare. The hosts tweaked their batting order a bit but the top order failed once again. It was then an unreal partnership of 201 runs between their star man, Sikandar Raza and the skipper, Regis Chakabva that got them in contention for the win. Both batters paced their innings beautifully but Chakabva was the aggressor. The two notched up memorable tons before the skipper got out. With still some work left to do, Tony Munyonga went into overdrive towards the fag end and sealed the deal for his team, a memorable debut for him.
What a finish to the game, the debutant Tony Munyonga hits the winning runs! Yet another humdinger of a game that we have witnessed once again between these two teams. It is Zimbabwe who thanks to yet another sublime century from Sikandar Raza and some late fireworks from the debutant Tony Munyonga have edged this one and have sealed the series win. This is their first ODI series victory since 2017, it has been a long wait but surely worth it for the home fans.

Hasan Mahmud To Regis Chakabva
Cracker of a delivery from Hasan Mahmud. This is full and at the pads, the ball tails in late and Regis Chakabva has no idea how to deal with it. The ball thuds into the pads and there's a loud appeal for LBW but it is turned down.

Drinks! Well, it's like Deja Vu for Bangladesh. They did all the hard work and got Zimbabwe down to 4 wickets with the score on just 49. After that though, they haven't been able to press the issue and right now, Sikandar Raza and especially Regis Chakabva are making a mockery of the bowling attack. The game still hangs in the balance but a wicket here for the visitors will make them favorites. 134 needed now off 120 balls.

NOT OUT! Sikandar Raza survives. This is tossed up full and on middle, Sikandar Raza looks to paddle it but gets a top edge towards the short fine leg. The ball falls short of the fielder. However, Regis Chakabva calls for the single and sets off for it but Sikandar Raza is caught ball watching. But he starts running at the last moment and Taijul Islam picks up the ball and throws it towards Hasan at the bowler's end and he takes the bail off. The umpire sends it upstairs and the replay shows that Mehidy Hasan broke the wickets with his left hand while the ball is in his right. Sikandar Raza with a lucky escape here.
Is that a Run-Out? Mehidy Hasan and Bangladesh feel they have got their man. The decision is sent upstairs and the third umpire is having a look at it. The bails come off before the bat is dragged in but the main concern is that the ball isn't in the hand that dislodges the bails. It is touch and go and the third umpire is taking his time. This could prove to be a huge moment in the game as Sikandar Raza is the batter in question. The third umpire deems it NOT OUT and there is a huge roar from the home crowd.

Taijul Islam To Tadiwanashe Marumani OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Taijul Islam strikes in his first over! Taijul serves this on a shorter length and on middle. Tadiwanashe Marumani just stands tall and looks to turn it leg side. Marumani closes the face of the bat way too early and the ball takes the leading edge. The ball lobs around the short cover region and the substitute fielder, Nasum Ahmed dives forward over there to take a solid catch. Marumani's fighting innings comes to an end and Zimbabwe lose another wicket. Regis Chakabva walks in with his side in a spot of real bother.

Drinks! Bangladesh are right on top here. Hasan Mahmud with his brilliant spell took two crucial and wickets at the start and Mehidy Hasan chipped in with another scalp. Zimbabwe are looking rust but the good thing for them is that Sikandar Raza is at the crease along with Tadiwanashe Marumani who is knocking the ball nicely. They will look to build this partnership whereas Bangladesh knows that if they can get rid of Raza they will have one foot over the finish line. Lets's see how things pan out. Also, Taijul Islam has been given the ball by Tamim Iqbal.
