ZIM vs AUS Live Cricket Score

9 OUT! CAUGHT! Newman Nyamhuri gets the big fish. Good length, wide of off, Mitchell Marsh looks to play the back foot punch again in the gap but finds Brian Bennett at covers. It flies flat and hard, but Brian dives low to his right and takes a superb catch to cut Marsh's innings short. A promising knock from the Aussie skipper comes to an end. 60/2

1.5 OUT! DRAGGED ON! A massive scalp for Zimbabwe and Brad Evans as they see the back of Travis Head early on in the contest. Good length, just on off, nips back in a bit, Travis Head looks for the square cut but this is too close to his body. He gets an inside edge that uproots the off-pole, and Travis Head has to walk back. This is now becoming a common dismissal for him, as we saw in the Bangladesh Test series as well. Australia are 10/1. 10/1

17.4 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Sikandar Raza does get his man eventually, and his front foot is fine on this occasion. He tosses it up, full and on off, gets it to turn away a shy bit but that is enough to deceive the batter. Cooper Connolly lunges out to defend but plays down the wrong line as the ball goes past the outside edge and hits the top of off pole. A dream dismissal, and Connolly is gone right after his fifty. Also, Matt Renshaw walks out to bat next. 107/4

13 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Brendan Taylor proves that age is just a number with a stunning catch. Newman Nyamhuri goes much fuller and just outside off. Sikandar Raza, just before this ball, moved himself to backward point from first slip. Josh Inglis goes for the expansive drive, but maybe he would not have if a slip was in place. He gets a thick outside edge behind, where Taylor dives to his right and takes a one-handed blinder into his right glove. Australia are 83/3 now. 83/3

31.3 OUT! STRAIGHT TO THE FIELDER! Brad Evans strikes on his return to the attack. He lands this back of a length and outside off, giving width to the batter. Alex Carey frees his arms and tries to cut it away but fails to keep his shot down. It flies wide of backward point, where Ryan Burl (Sub) dives to his left to take a sharp low catch just above the ground. The 72-run stand has now been broken. 179/5

43 OUT! HIT WICKET! Would you believe it? Oliver Peake has broken his stumps. Good length, around off, Oliver Peake is already standing deep inside the crease, then hops up and moves back further to tuck this through mid-wicket. The back foot of Oliver breaks the stumps and he has to walk back here. Australia are 254/6 now. 254/6

45.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Newman Nyamhuri gets his fourth of the game. He lands this short of a length, outside off, takes pace off again. Xavier Bartlett backs away and tries to slap it away but goes through the shot a bit early. He gets no elevation at all as the ball flies straight to extra cover, where Craig Ervine gets low and takes a simple catch. Australia are 269/7 now. 269/7
