So Scotland win their first ever ODI against a test nation. A historic win, and an entertaining game. Waller and Williams could have won the game for Zimbabwe with superb hitting, but Scotland's batting performance gave them a platform that gave breathing room. The second ODI will be played on Saturday. See you there to see if Zimbabwe can level the series, or will Scotland win a series against a test team? See you then!
