Elton Chigumbura is given the Man of the Match award for his scintillating batting. That's all we have from this match. Do join us in a short while for the last qualifier game between Netherlands and Ireland. See you then!
It was a shaky start for Zimbabwe in the chase with plenty of wickets falling quickly. Then came Elton Chigumbura and he completely turned the game on its head. We witnessed some awesome power-hitting by him as he took the UAE bowlers to the cleaners. He was nicely supported towards the end by Maruma and Zimbabwe managed to get what they wanted from this match. A win, a big win!
Outstanding batting by Chigumbura has powered Zimbabwe to a comfortable win and that too in 13.4 overs, which has boosted their NRR. They now move to the top of the points table and will now rely on the outcome of the Netherlands vs Ireland match for their qualification to the main draw.

Amjad Javed To Elton Chigumbura
Drama! Angles in a full ball on middle, Elton flicks it to mid-wicket for a single and there is confusion over the second run. Maruma wants it but is send back. It would have been a run out but the throw came in at the wrong end, which is the bowler's end. Javed fails to collect it and now they cross for a couple of runs. The bowler is furious with the fielder as he needed to throw it to the keeper.
