Nahid Rana to Brad Evans, FOUR, fourth boundary in the over and this will give Zimbabwe some momentum going into the second innings! An overpitched delivery outside off, Evans uses the pace and drives it crisply through extra covers to make it 18 off the final over

Nahid Rana to Brad Evans, FOUR, high full-toss this time around and Evans does really well to stand tall and hammer it to deep mid-wicket for a boundary. Drops just short of the fence

Nahid Rana to Brad Evans, FOUR, outstanding from Brad Evans! Full toss on the stumps and Evans prods across before scooping it right of the short fine leg for a boundary

Nahid Rana to Brad Evans, FOUR, nicely played! Mid-off inside the circle, Rana drops it full and outside off as Evans clears the front leg and tonks it down the ground for a boundary. Beats the mid-off fielder easily

Saifuddin to Brad Evans, leg byes, 1 run, Saifuddin gives no room, full and on the pads, Evans tries to heave it to the on-side but is hit on the pads. Just one taken off the leg bye

Nahid Rana to Ryan Burl, FOUR, this will help! Not something you would bowl with the mid-off inside the circle. Low full-toss outside off and Burl times the drive to the right of the fielder for a boundary

Nahid Rana to Tashinga Musekiwa, out Caught by Saif Hassan!! Two in two for Nahid Rana! This was in the slot and a well-set batter would have put it over long-on, but not Musekiwa. The right-hander gets no power behind his shot and finds the fielder at long-on. Tashinga Musekiwa c Saif Hassan b Nahid Rana 0(1)

Nahid Rana to Milton Shumba, out Caught by Taskin Ahmed!! Well-attempted lap from Shumba but he has hit it straight to the fielder at short fine leg. Low full-toss outside off, going away with the angle and Shumba crouched and shuffled across to get underneath it but fails to beat the fielder. Milton Shumba c Taskin Ahmed b Nahid Rana 11(13) [4s-1]

Saif Hassan to Milton Shumba, FOUR, struck hard, and struck down the ground for a boundary. Full and Shumba smashed it to the right of the bowler who put his hand up for the catch but took it away at the last second. Got some fingertip and seems to have hurt himself. Doesn't look too serious though

Saifuddin to Sikandar Raza, out Caught by Towhid Hridoy!! Full outside off from round the wicket, and Raza can't get enough elevation behind this shot. Times it decently with his wrists but it goes straight into the hands of the fielder at long-off. Big wicket this for Bangladesh! Sikandar Raza c Towhid Hridoy b Saifuddin 20(13) [4s-2 6s-1]

Saifuddin to Sikandar Raza, FOUR, full and wide, Raza goes down on his knee and hammers it through extra cover for a boundary

Saifuddin to Sikandar Raza, SIX, phew, that's hit with some power! On length, Raza picks it early and heaves it over deep mid-wicket for a massive six. It has gone out of the ground! That ball is not coming back!

Mahedi Hasan to Ryan Burl, FOUR, this is a stunning shot! Wasn't short at all but Burl made room and cut it off the stumps to deep backward point for a boundary. 10 off the last two deliveries, much-needed for Zimbabwe

Mahedi Hasan to Ryan Burl, SIX, Burl finally breaks the shackles! Runs down the wicket, gets to the pitch of the ball and tonks it down the ground for a maximum

Nahid Rana to Brian Bennett, out Caught by Tanzid Hasan Tamim!! That should be taken... and it is! Got a decent bat to it but the boundary size square of the wicket at this venue is quite big. Short of a length delivery well outside off from Nahid as Bennett stood tall and tried to smash it over sweeper cover, but couldn't clear the fence. Taken well inside the ropes. A good knock from Bennett comes to an end, and Nahid continues to impress with his pace and bounce. Brian Bennett c Tanzid Hasan Tamim b Nahid Rana 44(30) [4s-6 6s-1]

Nasum Ahmed to Brian Bennett, FOUR, that goes between short third and backward point! Short and wide, as Bennett moves back and cuts it past the two fielders

Nasum Ahmed to Sikandar Raza, FOUR, that will get him going! Width on offer, on the fuller side and Raza hammers it towards extra cover for his first boundary

Nasum Ahmed to Brian Bennett, FOUR, short and around off, Bennett picks up the length, goes on the back foot and plays it off the back foot for a boundary through the point region

Nahid Rana to Tadiwanashe Marumani, out Caught by Saif Hassan at deep square leg!! That's what extra pace can do! Marumani is cramped up and ends up timing it straight to the fielder at deep square leg. Back of a length delivery once again close to off, Marumani stands tall and tries to time the pull instead of hitting it, gets good bat to it but ends up hitting it straight to the fielder. Didn't really look comfortable against Nahid.Tadiwanashe Marumani c Saif Hassan b Nahid Rana 14(9) [6s-2]

Mahedi Hasan to Tadiwanashe Marumani, SIX, runs keep coming! Sixes keep coming! Shorter into the stumps, not a great delivery as Marumani swivels across and pulls it square of the wicket for another six

Mahedi Hasan to Tadiwanashe Marumani, SIX, Tadiwanashe Marumani says he is here too! Slanting into the pads as Marumani gets down on his knee and sweeps it over deep backward square leg for another maximum

Nasum Ahmed to Brian Bennett, FOUR, a proper hit-me delivery from Nasum! Short and into the body, Bennett rocks back and hammers it towards deep mid-wicket for a boundary

Taskin Ahmed to Brian Bennett, FOUR, cheeky, this is brilliant from Bennett! Brings out the scoop in the very first over of the match. Full and coming into the stumps, Bennett moves across, covers the stumps and scoops it over the head of the wicketkeeper for a boundary. He wants to change his bat now, despite hitting two boundaries off it

Taskin Ahmed to Brian Bennett, FOUR, that's one way to start the innings! A half-volley outside off from the seamer and Brian Bennett comes forward and smashes it through cover-point for a boundary. That was hit with some power
