That's all from this exciting encounter. It surely entertained one and all. The fact that Zimbabwe didn't given up till the end made it worth watching. In spite of winning this, Windies would like to get more clinical with their overall game. Next up, Afghanistan will face UAE tomorrow in a crucial match. We look forward to your company at 0930 local (0730 GMT). Until then, it's goodbye and cheers!

Graeme Cremer, Zimbabwe captain starts by saying that they were pretty happy with the target they set for the Windies. Adds that his spinners have been doing well so far in the competition so it was a tough call to take them off early. Credits Marlon Samuels and Shai Hope for the way they batted and more or less sealed the deal for Windies. States that it would have been nice to win today, but will embrace the must-win game against UAE and come out firing against them.

Windies captain, Jason Holder starts by saying that it was a team effort and they pulled back nicely. Praises Taylor for his knock. Adds that he was pleased with this game and that everyone put up their hands to get the job done. Ends by saying that they held their nerves nicely till the very end.

Man of the Match, Marlon Samuels starts by saying that it was a special team effort and they continued to believe in themselves. Reckons that it was a good wicket but they believed that they could chase it down. Adds that Hope is his favourite batsman and they needed to build a partnership together in that situation. Ends by saying that after his dismissal he was expecting Hope to take them home but still is pleased that they ended the game with a win.

The hosts were not up to the mark with their bowling and Graeme Cremer also was found wanting in his captaincy. He didn't show any urgency when the duo of Samuels and Hope got settled and kept feeding them spin. In the hindsight, had he brought his pacers a little early, things could have panned out a bit differently. Also, his punt to bowl Sean Williams in the 49th over didn't pay off and bowling Kyle Jarvis then could have taken this match into the last over. Anyway, a bad day in the office and they slip to the number two spot with Windies going on top.

Just when the game looked to be done and dusted, the hosts sniffed a chance after removing both Samuels and Hope in a space of six balls. The batsmen following didn't shy away from swinging their bat but it came with a price as Windies lost another couple of wickets in quick succession. Zimbabwe took it close towards the end but the pair of Rovman Powell and Ashley Nurse kept their cool to score the remaining runs with an over remaining.

Chasing a stiff target, Windies got off to a good start but then lost Chris Gayle. It didn't bother them much though as Evin Lewis and Shai Hope raised a 72-run stand to keep the chase on track. Their position was further strengthened after the big century partnership between Marlon Samuels and Hope. The former, in particular, started cautiously but then pressed on the accelerator. Due to his knock, the asking rate always remained under control.

Terrific win for Windies! Things got a little too close for comfort but they have pulled it off. The usually noisy Harare Sports Club is very quiet at the moment, understandably so but nothing can be taken away from the way the visiting team scaled down the target. The players from both sides are shaking hands and exchanging pleasantries. Spare a thought for Brendan Taylor, his outstanding knock has gone in vain.

Sean Williams To Ashley Nurse

WINDIES WIN BY 4 WICKETS! This wasn't the case of a finishing it off in style as the winning run is a leg bye. Nurse goes down on one knee for a big sweep but fails to connect. It goes off his pads to short fine leg and they cross and jump in joy.
