ZIM vs WI Live Cricket Score

8.3 OUT! Jarvis' consistent lines have earned him a wicket. Beautiful spell of seam bowling this. He lands it on a length around off, Brathwaite looks to push at it away from the body. The ball nips away a touch to catch the outside edge of the bat and Chakabva behind the wicket gleefully accepts the offering. End of Brathwaite's stay at the crease, which was more about blocking rather than looking to score. Zimbabwe strike early.  14/1

43.2 OUT! Good use of the review, Cremer! Fuller outside off, Powell gets across and looks to paddle it but seems to have missed it. The short leg fielder goes to his left and falls over as he takes the catch. The players appeal but the umpire is not sure. Cremer gets across to his fielders and has a word. Ervine is confident of having taken the catch. A review is signaled and the replays are just what the doctor ordered for the home side. The UltraEdge spots an inside edge but the third umpire takes his time to conclude that there was indeed an edge. Second successful review for Zimbabwe. A wicket just at the right time. End of a very good stand for the away side. Powell has to walk back after a good effort.  110/3

15.3 OUT! What a review! Taylor is the man who convinced his skipper to opt for the review. It is a peach of a delivery on a length outside off. Hope hangs his bat at it and the ball goes to the keeper. The players put in a muted appeal but the umpire stays put. The bowler doesn't seem too keen but the players decide to take it upstairs, which is a tad surprising as there didn't seem to be anything to the naked eye. And here's where the technology comes to the rescue of the home side. Snicko shows a spike that brings joy to the Zimbabweans. Solomon Mire gets his first Test wicket as he ends Hope's misery at the crease. The hosts are on a roll here.  35/2

65.2 OUT! This time there's no need to appeal as Roston chase starts walking. Raza floats it around middle, Chase looks to defend again. This times he gets an inside edge onto his pads, which lobs up to Ervine at short leg who makes no mistake. The Zimbabweans don't need the umpire's confirmation as there was a big deflection. The vital stand is broken and the hosts are ecstatic.  174/4

69 OUT! Excellent work from the keeper! Quick strike for the home side. Cremer tosses this up around middle and leg, Blackwood lunges forward to defend. But the ball yet again spins sharply past the batsman. He is overbalanced a bit and Chakabva whips off the bails in a flash. He seems very confident and begins to celebrate. The umpire takes it upstairs. Replays roll in. Jermaine's back foot is on the line when the bails are dislodged. The TV umpire has numerous looks at it before giving the judgement in favour of the hosts. Zimbabwe are chipping in with wickets at regular intervals. 2 wickets within 5 runs after Tea here!  179/5

75.4 OUT! Cremer seems to be the man with the midas touch. Rings in the bowling change and it reaps dividend immediately! Williams tosses it up around off, Dowrich fails to counter the spin. Looks to play with his bat and pad close together without trying to get to the pitch of the ball. The ball takes the outside edge, courtesy the extra bounce, and flies to the right of Masakadza at slip, who takes a good catch diving to his right. Yet another failure for Dowrich. Windies slide further, Zimbabwe on the rise.  202/6

80 OUT! Holder departs and takes a review with him. Williams tosses this in line of the stumps, Holder looks to play against the turn but misses. The ball strikes him on the back pad and goes towards gully. The Zimbabweans appeal and the umpire obliges. Holder isn't convinced and has a chat with his partner before opting for the review. Replays roll in. Snicko shows a spike as the ball passes the bat. But the umpire is sure that there is no edge. Hawk Eye shows three reds and Holder's stay ends. Zimbabwe are happy as they see the back of the visiting skipper.  212/7

82 OUT! Williams strikes to snaffle up his third. This is a really tame dismissal. Floated around off and middle, Bishoo looks to turn it past square leg. Ends up getting it off the inner half to short leg, where Ervine makes no mistake. The tourists are falling like a pack of cards here as they aren't having any answers to the spinners from Zimbabwe.  218/8

82.4 OUT! Cremer adds another to his kitty. Roach wastes the review and exhausts all that they have. Cremer bowls it flatter in line of the stumps, Kemar strides forward to defend but gets hit on the front pad. The home side appeals and after a long look, the umpire obliges. The hosts celebrate but, hold on! The batsman opts for the review. The ball hits the pad first and then the bat, which was behind the pad. Hawk Eye shows three reds and that's it for the tailender with the bat. Zimbabwe one wicket away from bowling out the opposition.  219/9

82.5 OUT! Gabriel goes first ball! Cremer gets his fourth. He serves it in line of the stumps, Gabriel lunges forward to bunt it down. But all he manages to do is get an inside edge that is safely taken by Ervine at short leg. Another catch for him and that gets Zimbabwe jumping with joy. Excellent spin bowling by them to BOWL OUT WEST INDIES FOR 219!  219/10

26.1 OUT! Just what the doctor ordered for the Windies! Bishoo floats it around off, gets it to drift in, Masakadza prods forward to defend but the ball spins ever so slightly to take the outside edge. Dowrich takes a good catch behind the wickets and starts celebrating. The umpire raises his finger to confirm to the crowd who could not believe it. Bishoo has struck in time and Hamilton walks back to the hut without even contemplating a review. He will know that he should have carried on. Timely strike for the visitors.  91/2

11.5 OUT! Mire's audacity has brought about his downfall. This is Test cricket and you need to bide your time but he was getting fidgety after a few quiet overs. That has brought about this shot and his end. Roach bowls a slower delivery at 116 kmph around off, Mire looks to go high over wide mid on. The bat turns in his hands and he ends up getting it towards deep mid-wicket. Kraigg Brathwaite runs to his left, settles under it and takes it safely. Roach strikes early. That should get things going for him. Mire's entertaining cameo comes to an end.  44/1

46.1 OUT! Another one bites the dust! The leggie is among the thick of things yet again. Bishoo bowls it flatter around middle and leg, Ervine looks to sweep but misses. Gets rapped on the pads and that draws a huge appeal from the visitors. The umpire has no qualms in raising the dreaded finger. Ervine has a chat with his partner, who tells him to walk without reviewing that. Hawk Eye shows that the umpire has got it right. Ervine departs after a good knock but again a start has been squandered by a Zimbabwe batter.  133/6

28.3 OUT! Superb anticipation, Blackwood! Bishoo bowls it outside off, Taylor looks to reverse sweep but cannot connect properly. Blackwood at first slip goes to his right and plucks it out of thin air. Wonderful piece of fielding by him to expect the shot from Brendan and get into position. Another wicket for the Windies and they are right back in the game. Brendan Taylor has to go back disappointed.  93/3

35.2 OUT! Williams' scratchy stay at the crease ends. It is a nothing shot. Roach bowls it on a length well wide of off, Sean pokes his bat at it needlessly. All he manages to do is get a thin edge to the keeper who makes no mistake. Sean is livid with himself and he should be. Windies are now striking regularly, Zimbabwe trail by 109.  110/4

42.4 OUT! Sikandar Raza, what have you done? There's no need to hurry at all in the game but the Zimbabweans are imploding here. Tossed up delivery around off and middle by Bishoo, Raza looks to go big down the ground. Ends up getting it off the outer half towards long off. Gabriel runs in and manages to cling on to that crouching forward, somehow. Poor knock that from the batsman. Devendra Bishoo and Windies are happy. The hosts are still 96 runs behind.  123/5

49.3 OUT! Timber! Holder special! Angles a length ball around off, gets it to nip in. Waller expecting a short ball has his weight back and tries to keep it out. The ball beats him on the inside edge and makes the middle stump go for a walk. That is a pleasing sight for any bowler. Holder is doing his job. The trail is still 80 runs.  139/7

52.1 OUT! Bishoo has five! He lands it short and outside off, gets it to bounce more, Chakabva aims to punch but gets beaten by the extra bounce on it. The ball flies off the top edge towards Chase at point who takes it going back a touch. Bishoo has delivered the goods expected from him. 4th five-wicket haul for him in Tests.  147/8

54 OUT! Holder has another one! Jason floats it outside off, Cremer looks to drive it away but gets an inside edge. The ball trickles onto the stumps and the bails come off. Holder cannot believe his luck. The umpire checks for the no ball but Holder was fine. Zimbabwe sink further, they still trail by 72 runs.  147/9

61.3 OUT! Gabriel strikes! Shannon bowls it outside off, Mpofu pokes at it and gets an outside edge. The keeper takes a simple catch going to his right and that is a superb effort by the Windies. ZIMBABWE BOWLED OUT FOR 159, West Indies get a lead of 60 runs. It's also, Tea, Day 2!  159/10

76.2 OUT! Raza has his man! Kraigg Brathwaite is dismissed after being given two lives. Raza continues from around the wicket and floats it up around off, it spins in as Brathwaite moves across to block. Is caught flush in front of the stumps and the umpire has no trouble at all to raise his finger in response to the lbw appeal. Kraigg didn't even bother thinking of reviewing that, it was that clear. Brathwaite departs, but has made a significant contribution with his 86 on a difficult batting track. Excellent knock. Zimbabwe have their breakthrough here, can they make further inroads from this point?  174/3

10.3 OUT! Knocked him over! What a ball that is! Floated around off, the ball doesn't turn as much as Powell expects. He lunges forward to play and the ball beats him on the outer edge to hit the off pole. The Zimbabwe players are ecstatic with the early breakthrough. Don't think Kieran could have done anything better.  25/1

44.4 OUT! Jarvis' efforts reap rewards, finally! He spears it outside off, the ball reverses into the batsman. Kyle Hope misses the flick and gets hit on the pads. The Zimbabweans appeal and the umpire upholds that. Hope has a chat with his partner about the review but is told to continue walking back. To be fair to him, he expected the ball to get up but it stayed low. Reverse swing combined with low bounce helps the hosts break the 82-run stand. Kyle Hope walks back after registering his best Test score, he would have wished to carry on though.  107/2

88.1 OUT! Jarvis strikes in time! Angles it around off on a length, gets it to come back in sharply, Hope hops a touch and looks to clip it through but is hit on his pad. The players appeal and the umpire upholds it. Hope is not sure and has a word with his partner. Goes for the review as he must be thinking since he had jumped a touch, the ball could be missing the stumps. Ball Tracker shows three reds and hence Shai has to depart. Handy knock by him. The lead is 271 runs.  211/4

126 OUT! What was the hurry, Roston Chase? The hundred was there for the taking but he has thrown it away. The field placement has brought about this rash shot from the batter. Cremer blocked all the single-taking options and Chase didn't want Gabriel to face the next over. Hence, he decides to take matters in his own hands and tries to go big. Williams invites him to do so by tossing it up around middle and leg, Chase clears his front leg and looks to go downtown but is in no position to do so. Misses the ball completely and loses his leg stick. The hosts are ecstatic and Williams celebrates like an airplane taking off. A good knock comes to an end, although Roston will be kicking himself. WINDIES FOLD UP FOR 373!  373/10

89.4 OUT! Blackwood is a goner! Williams angles it around off, Blackwood shapes to defend it from his crease but is beaten. The keeper takes the bails off and appeals. He does not look too confident though. The third umpire is referred. Replays find Blackwood's back foot is not behind the line and hence, Jermaine has to walk back to the hut. Twice in the game, he has been stumped. He should be kicking himself. Replays show that Jermaine did not attempt to get back in the crease. Ordinary stuff. The change in bowling has worked.  224/5

93.2 OUT! Dowrich fails again! Williams loops it around off, Dowrich pushes at it with hard hands. The ball takes the outside edge and flies towards first slip. Masakadza takes the catch bending low. That is another wicket for Sean. He has done his bit to keep his side in the game. Dowrich's poor run in Test cricket continues, which is a shame since he was looking really good.  244/6

100.2 OUT! Cremer has his revenge! Floats it around off, Holder looks to go over covers but gets an outside edge towards backward point. Mpofu takes the catch and celebrates it. Jason was looking to go big but now has to go back to the hut. The lead for West Indies is 337 runs.  277/7

122.3 OUT! One too many! Greediness consumes Bishoo. Cremer tosses it up around off, Devendra gets down to slog it over deep mid-wicket but finds Williams stationed there. He nailed the shot but unfortunately found the fielder. Won't get a fifty and goes for 44, his second-best Test score. End of a good knock from him though. THAT'S STUMPS, DAY 3!  369/8

122.4 OUT! What a start for Zimbabwe and Cremer! He's on a hat-trick yet again in this Test! He loops a googly around off and middle, Roach, the tailender that he is, fails to pick that up. Lunges forward to play for the leg spin but ends up missing the ball and his stumps get disturbed. Can Chase get to his ton now?  369/9

27.2 OUT! Brathwaite strikes! Yes, of all the bowlers, he gives Windies the crucial breakthrough and Masakadza cannot believe what has just happened. Floated around off, Hamilton lunges forward in defense. The ball spins in, takes the inside edge, lobs off his pads and lands into the safe hands of Shai Hope at short leg. That's the end of a very good knock from the senior opener but he would be ruing the fact that he couldn't carry on. The 99-run stand is broken now and the visitors would look to make further strikes.  99/1

29 OUT! One brings two! Roach hurls it full around off that tails in even more after pitching. Mire gets overbalanced as he looks to jam it out. Misses the ball completely and it strikes his back pad and disturbs the stumps. Solomon was looking fidgety for sometime now and this is a very untimely dismissal for the hosts. He has played well but the visitors are ecstatic as both the set batsmen are gone now.  109/2

42 OUT! He's gone! That's a big wicket for Windies, Bishoo with a vital breakthrough. He floats it up nicely on the stumps, skids on and keeps a little low as well. Craig Ervine goes back to flick but is beaten by the lack of turn and struck on the pads. Loud shout and the umpire raises his finger after a thought. Ervine thinks he's gone, he confers with Taylor who tells him to review it. It's taken upstairs and replays show that he's gone on all counts. Zimbabwe lose their third, Windies right on top here.  141/3

76.5 OUT! Is that the final nail in the coffin for Zimbabwe? Likely. Taylor commits another blunder in the running between the wickets and that proves to be his end. Chase flights it around middle, Taylor goes back and turns it through backward square leg and sets off for a run. Brathwaite in the deep jogs towards the ball and seeing that, Brendan looks for another one. The throw at the striker's end is accurate and the keeper whips the bails off and appeals. The third umpire is involved now. Replays show that the batsman hasn't made it in and has to walk back. Taylor knew that he was short as seen from his reaction. A very good knock comes to an end now. The end is nigh.  253/8

47.3 OUT! That's a tame dismissal, really. Should have done so much better there. But this is a huge breakthrough for Windies, Bishoo is continuing his heroics from the first innings. Slower through the air on middle and off, Williams is down the track to block but the ball sneaks past the inside edge, hits his pads and thuds into Dowrich's gloves. The keeper does really well to keep his eyes on the ball and whip the bails off. Williams does not even try getting back. It has been a poor Test for him, with the bat. Hang on though! This is interesting. Upon watching the replays, it's seen that there was a slight inside edge as well. So, maybe that's why he didn't really try to get back in his crease with any kind of urgency. Knew he was gone either way.  155/4

67.2 OUT! See that is why, I wrote on the previous ball that it was not a good ploy to have Raza facing Bishoo. He was troubling him in the last over. This time Bishoo bowls one around off, very short asking to be hit. What Raza manages to do is hit it straight to Chase at covers who takes a good catch diving to his right. That's a really vital wicket for the Windies and Bishoo is delighted. That is why Zimbabwe need to play more Test cricket to understand the value of making most of starts. Twice in the game, Raza has got out to poor shots at the wrong time. Not that there is a good time to get out but you have to make sure you do not give the opposition an inch. West Indies have an opening here, will they trigger a collapse from hereon? Zimbabwe still need 215 more runs to win.  219/5

73.2 OUT! Needless run out! There was no need for such risky quick singles. Bishoo floats it full around leg, Taylor clips it in front of mid-wicket and sets off. There is a certain confusion in the running before they eventually decide to go ahead with it. Proves fatal as Shai Hope gets to the ball and hits the bull's eye at the striker's end. Waller is well short of the crease. Brendan is distraught with himself for this. Windies are more than happy as Zimbabwe are 6 down.  246/6

74.5 OUT! The Zimbabwean procession continues! Chase floats it nicely on the stumps, Chakabva drives it aerially down the ground. The bowler dives to his left and takes a good return catch to hand another blow to the hosts. Chakabva fails yet again and now Windies inch closer to a win. 184 more needed for an unlikely win for the home side.  249/7

81.2 OUT! Bishoo strikes with the new ball, his 9th wicket in the game. He gives this ball some more air in line of the stumps, Cremer looks to play across the line but spoons an easy catch back to the bowler. The bat turned in Cremer's hand and that led to the dismissal. The visitors are just one wicket away. How well has Bishoo bowled though! Strikes with the old ball and now even with the new one. Excellent stuff by the leggie.  263/9

90.4 OUT! The fun ends! Chase bowls it outside off, Mpofu wants to thump it out of Zimbabwe but does not connect well. The ball flies down towards long on where Kieran Powell takes a really good catching leaping to his left. Ends the joy for the sparse crowd. WEST INDIES WIN BY 117 RUNS!  316/10
