Inn Break
Right then. Now, it is time for the celebrations. The captain Mominul Haque waits for his team to gather around him. They pose for the cameras, as they lift the trophy. A great start to the series away from home for Bangladesh. Catch these two team again. As they go head-to-head in the first of three ODI's on 16th July at 1 PM IST. Do join us for that. Till then cheers and goodbye!
Mominul Haque, the winning skipper, is up for a chat. He says, he is really happy to win his first overseas game. Adds that the juniors performed really well to keep the team in the game. Also says Mehidy Hasan could perform on a flat wicket and he went onto pick up nine wickets which is very impressive. Ends by saying it was really a team effort that helped them to seal the victory.
Mahmudullah, Man of the Match, is up for a chat. He says, he always liked to contribute for the team and fortunately they went onto win the game. Also says he was happy to see all smiles around him. Adds that Liton Das batted really well, also he was having fun with Taskin Ahmed in the middle and they only aimed to build the partnership. Adds that there is always pressure when you play international cricket. Ends by saying he went back to his basics to see off the game.
Brendan Taylor is up for a chat. He says they needed to seize the moment but they fell short of it. Also praises the opposition for their effort. Adds that Takudzwanashe Kaitano showed a lot of character on his debut. He also says they let Bangladesh walk over them. Adds that they need to be at their absolute best in the white ball series and would look to give it their all.
Zimbabwe started the Test game on a good note. They were looking solid with the ball. It was all about theirs pacers as they restricted Bangladesh to 132 for 6 at one point. But they lost the grip of the match soon after. Courtesy of a crucial stand for Bangaladesh by Mahmudullah and Liton Das. Das fell short of his century just by five runs. But the former went onto to score 150 runs to take the team to safer shores. Also a handy innings by Taskin Ahmed with the bat helped Bangladesh to a massive score of 468 runs. In the second innings the top-order of the hosts were the one who muscled their innings, as their tail enders did not trouble much as the side skittled out for 276 runs. Then Shadman Islam Najmul Hossain Shanto both played brilliant knocks and scored a century respectively which led Bangladesh to declare for 284 for 1. And Zimbabwe in the chase were not able to rise to the occassion as they got all out for 256.
Bangladesh never looked out of the game. They knocked out three wickets by the end of Day 4. As Taskin Ahmed, Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Hasan all picked up a wicket each before the end of Day 4 to put Zimbabwe on the backfoot. On the final day, after an hour mark, Bangladesh started chipping away wickets. Mehidy snared three wickets while, Taskin Ahmed snared four wickets. Ebadot Hossain just picked up a single to get the penultimate wicket. In the end, Mehidy Hasan picked up his fourth wicket to get rid of the final batsman and seal the victory for Bangladesh.
On Day 4, Zimbabwe started the chase of 477 runs. Shumba was the first one to depart. Then the skipper Taylor and Kaitano's pair powered their innings. Both were playing contrasting roles. One was on the attack while the other one was defensively stronger. But the skipper lost his track on 92, while Kaitano made his walk back to the shed on just 7 runs but off 102 balls. The pair of Tiripano and Myers started well for the hosts on the final day. They were solid for the first hour into the play. But post the Drinks break, everything was scattered as they kept losing wickets at quick interval. Three batters came in and went back without troubling the scoreboard much. Leaving Tiripano as a sole spectator at the other end. It was then Nyauchi who complimented well for a quite sometime. But could not last in the middle for long. Tiripano also went onto score his fifty and got out once he crossed that mark. It was then Muzarabani and Ngarava who played along for some time but could not last for long as Ngarava gave away his wicket.

Taskin Ahmed To Victor Nyauchi OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT AT SLIPS! Shakib Al Hasan almost made a mess of it again but gets it on the second bite. And now Taskin Ahmed has reached his best figures in Test cricket. A small solid inning of Victor Nyauchi comes to an end. Serves a short ball, on middle. Victor Nyauchi is left with no room. He sways back and looks to play it above the slip cordon. But the ball does not get the elevation. It goes straight to Shakib Al Hasan at first slip. He juggles it once but grabs it eventually. Two more wickets to win.

We are back for the second session of Day 5! The Bangladesh players stride out to the middle, followed by Donald Tiripano and Victor Nyauchi. Mehidy Hasan will start with the ball.
... Day 5, Session 2 ...
Right. Bangladesh are just a few steps away from lifting the trophy. They need three more wickets. We just have to see how quickly they wrap things up. It does not look good for the hosts but can they spring a surprise. Anything can happen. Join us for the action, as the second session gets underway. We will be back at 1210 local time (1010 GMT).
Zimbabwe had a good start to the day. Both the batters survived the initial first hour of the game by the skin of their teeth though. As the opposition dropped a few catches. But post the drinks break it all went haywire. They first lost Dion Myers, as a crucial stand between Tiripano and him came to an end. Later Tiripano survived till Lunch, but he kept losing his teammates on the other end. The next three batters Timycen Maruma, Roy Kaia and Regis Chakabva were sent backpacking in a short span. They hardly troubled the scoreline as the first two batsmen were knocked out on naughts and a run from the latter. It is now Donald Tiripano and Victor Nyauchi who have a long way to go in this match if they want to get a draw out of it. But it looks to be difficult.
Bangladesh are well on top at Lunch on Day 5. They bowled 27 overs in the first session and took 4 wickets. The first 17 overs were wicketless for Bangladesh i.e. till the Drinks break. But after the break, Mehidy Hasan struck in no time as he dismissed Dion Myers. He also went onto pick up another wicket of Timycen Maruma through a plumb LBW. Later it was Taskin Ahmed who added fire to the attack and picked up two more wickets to put Zimbabwe in all sorts of trouble.
