Richard Ngarava comes round the wicket, bowls a length delivery going down the leg, Ibrahim Zadran steps inside and looks to flick this around the fine leg region but gets a faint edge onto it and Tafadzwa Tsiga does well to dive low to his left and pouch this one. Tsiga gathers this just inches above the ground and the ploy to come round the wicket to Zadran and cramp him for any sort of room works for Richard Ngarava and Zimbabwe.  59/3

19.5 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Good length, wide of off, Hashmatullah Shahidi presses in front and plays with firm hands at it, looking to punch this to cover for nothing. The ball shapes a hint away from the batter and that was enough to catch the outside edge of Hashmatullah Shahidi's with the ball going straight to Craig Ervine at second slip. Ervine makes no mistake and pouches this one.  60/4
