We are back for the final session of Day 3. The Pakistan players are out in the middle. Regis Chakabva and Donald Tiripano will resume their innings for Zimbabwe. Hasan Ali will start the proceedings for Pakistan in this session.
... Day 3, Session 3 ...
Now, Zimbabwe are behind by 132 runs and have half their side back in the hut. They will be hoping that they can show some fight and bat the whole off the third session out and force the game into the fourth day, whereas, the visitors, will be looking to snaffle the remaining wickets and close the game out on Day 3. Which team will the third session belong to? Join us shortly to find out.
Definitely Pakistan's session, this! They have probed hard and their rigidness in ensuring that they snare wickets has seen them take 5 wickets in the afternoon session and have pushed Zimbabwe on the back foot. Kevin Kasuza and Tarisai Musakanda were not scoring runs freely, but runs were coming for the hosts. It was then that Hasan Ali got the better of Kasuza and that is when the floodgates opened up. Shumba fell prey to Nauman Ali next and then Musakanda, who was playing well and was on his way to his half-century, ran a suicidal third run and lost his wicket, via a run out. Taylor, the skipper, showed some resistance, but he played a shot too many and gave his wicket away, whereas, Roy Kaia went back for a 4-ball duck.

Nauman Ali To Brendan Taylor OUT!
OUT! RUN OUT! Musakanda departs! Flighted delivery on off, Taylor plays a reverse sweep through point. The batsmen take a couple. They go for the third. Sajid Khan chases the ball and stops it before the ropes. He picks the ball and throws it at the keeper's end where Rizwan takes the bails off. Replays show that Musakanda is well short of his crease. A suicidal run and Zimbabwe have gifted this wicket to Pakistan here.
Roy Kaia is the new batter in.

Is that a run out? Replays show that Tarisai Musakanda is miles outside the crease, when the bails are whipped off. Will be out.

Nauman Ali To Milton Shumba OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Nauman Ali gets his first wicket and Shumba is not able to make a lot of impact with the blade! This delivery is tossed up very nicely, and it is landed outside off, seems to have been bowled on the rough, as the ball spins back sharply to the left-hander. Shumba looks to drive but gets an inside edge. It goes towards the keeper where Rizwan takes it and then appeals for caught behind and the umpire raises his finger.

DRINKS! It has been Pakistan's hour after the Lunch break. Yes, they have not snared a lot of wickets, and have just sent two batters back to the shed, but they have not allowed Zimbabwe to score runs freely too. The pressure is building over after over, as the Pakistani bowlers are bowling nice tight lines and lengths. They will look to send a couple of batters back, before the Tea break now and take this game by the throat. Brendan Taylor is the new batter in.

OUT! LBW! Hasan Ali gets the breakthrough! The first wicket falls for Zimbabwe and the opening stand, which was looking good, has been broken here. It is a really good delivery from Ali and this was plumb, for sure! A length ball, around off, it nips back in sharply as Kevin Kasuza stays on the back foot and looks to work this one to the on side. The ball sneaks through and he gets struck on the pad. An appeal and the umpire does not take long to raise his finger. Now, Pakistan will be looking to build on this.

We are back for the second session of Day 3. The Pakistan players are out in the middle. Kevin Kasuza and Tarisai Musakanda will resume their innings for Zimbabwe. Faheem Ashraf will start the proceedings for this session.
... Day 3, Session 2 ...
Pakistan's bowling was decent. Shaheen Afridi bowled really well and deserved a wicket or two but he did not have luck on his side as a catch was dropped and some edges went past the fielder. Hasan Ali bowled with venom and was decent as well. They would hope to come back and pick up quick wickets. They are way ahead in the game but they will want to win by an innings. Join us at around 1210 local (1010 GMT) for the second session.
Zimbabwe started well with the bat. Both Kevin Kasuza and Tarisai Musakanda have looked good but they have a long way to go and they need to continue. Kasuza has rode his luck as he was dropped while Musakanda has played well. They would hope to come back after Lunch and continue the good work.
A good session for Zimbabwe! They first bowled out Pakistan cheaply on Day 3 and they would have wanted to play out the rest of the session without losing any wickets and they did just that. Zimbabwe will be happy with the proceedings but they would know that there is still a long way to go. Pakistan, on the other hand, would have liked to pick up a few wickets but it was not to be.
