- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 as far as catches go, it can't get simpler than that. It was a delicious half-volley outside off, Masakadza's eyes lit up and he threw his bat at that, but didn't transfer any weight whatsoever forward, as the thick edge flew to Bumrah who took a regulation catch at third man. He perhaps played for some inswing when there was none. Sran looks up to the skies to thank the gods. First one in the bag for him today 19/19.6 the bluff, or was it unintended? Two deliveries that moved away, this one comes back in from the off stump. Chibhabha is caught on the crease and by surprise as the ball thuds into his pad as he looks to awkwardly work it across the line. The umpire had no doubt whatsoever. That would have crashed into the stumps. 39/36.2 indecision in footwork has consumed him. Moor hopped back when he could have well prodded forward, and ends up getting into a tangle as the ball nips back in to hit him in front of middle. He pushed outside the line of the delivery too. Sran's morning just got better 21/227.4 oh my, Sibanda has given it away. There go Zimbabwe's hopes! It was a length delivery well outside off and Sibanda went ahead with a big slog-sweep, but the ball turned a fair bit and took a leading edge that went really high. Enough time for Jadhav to come forward and to his left for an easy catch 107/625.2 he tries to break the shackles but he's holed out to long-on! It was pitched up around off, Raza went across the line and tried to clear the fielder in the deep but found him pretty comfortably. Kedar Jadhav it was 106/425.3 oh, he's gone first ball, Chahal has him lbw! It looked very close and umpire Langton Rusere gave it out confidently. Looks like the flighted ball pitched on leg and turned just enough to come back towards the stumps as Chigumbura came forward to defend but missed. Replays show it pitched on leg and would have hit middle and leg. So all good with the decision 106/530.2 inside edge as the ball nips in sharply and the finger goes up! Short delivery that pitched well outside off and jagged in sharply off the pitch to get a faint inside edge and Dhoni did the rest by going to his left. Mutumbami shakes his head, but replays show there was something the ball touched on its way. Looks like bat unless more replays suggest otherwise 112/731.4 that one pitched outside off, this one on off and then knocks it over! Nice seam position of the ball as it was back of length and held its line, making Chatara wanting to flick it to leg but the movement beat him and struck top of off 115/834.3 more flight and using the angle to aim for the stumps, loud appeal and Gould gives it out after a couple of seconds! It was like a flighted slider as Muzarabani went forward to defend and was struck right in front 126/10Extras10 (lb 4, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL126 all out (34.3 Overs, RR: 3.65)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Hamilton Masakadza, 4.3 ov), 2-21 (Peter Moor, 6.2 ov), 3-39 (Chamu Chibhabha, 9.6 ov), 4-106 (Sikandar Raza, 25.2 ov), 5-106 (Elton Chigumbura, 25.3 ov), 6-107 (Vusi Sibanda, 27.4 ov), 7-112 (Richmond Mutumbami, 30.2 ov), 8-115 (Tendai Chatara, 31.4 ov), 9-126 (Taurai Muzarabani, 34.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR14.4 he's dragged it on, Chibhabha gets a wicket! That short-of-length delivery looked like an offcutter after pitching outside off, and Rahul went after it without moving his feet. It came in, got the inside edge and struck the stumps 58/126.4 loud appeal for lbw and the umpire nods immediately! Raza roars as Nair walks back with disappointment. It was flighted nicely on the middle stump, pretty full, and Nair looked to sweep it, but missed it completely, hit right in front 125/2Extras12 (lb 1, nb 2, w 9)TOTAL129/2 (26.5 Overs, RR: 4.8)Fall of wickets: 1-58 (KL Rahul, 14.4 ov), 2-125 (Karun Nair, 26.4 ov)
