    6.3 Oh no! Madhevere misses the pull and he is struck plumb in front! The finger goes up immediately! Delany bowls from almost next to the stumps. It pitches on a length on middle and leg and straightens. Madhevere backed away for the pull but this stayed low to evade his bat. Madhevere struggled to get Delany away in the last over and now Delany has his man! 43/2
    1.1 Josh Little strikes first ball! It's pitched up on middle and going straight. Kamunhukamwe looks to turn it leg side but misses and is struck on the pads. Umpire doesn't take long in raising his finger and Ireland draw first blood! 6/1
    6.6 Chopped on! Bennett was finally looking set after two early dismissals but he has done himself in here! It's a length ball outside off and Bennett goes back to try and cut it away but that was too full for the cut, and probably too close to him as well. He ends up deflecting the ball onto the stumps and an impressive innings comes to an end 44/3
    9.1 Goes through him! Craig Young with another breakthrough as Munyonga looks to pull and misses. It's a length ball, not quite short enough for a pull and he misses and Young hits the top of middle! 61/4
    17.1 Is that a wicket? Tector thinks so, Burl is not sure, it's all quiet, but yes, it is a catch at cover! It was full outside off and Burl hits a hard drive on the up, but Delany takes it low. And Zimbabwe have suddenly lost two of their set batters in two consecutive deliveries! Delany wasn't celebrating but Tector ran in to ask why they weren't for a wicket! 116/6
    16.6 Craig Young gets the breakthrough! It's a good bouncer, cramping Madande for room. Comes off the splice as he goes for the pull. Harry Tector has to come in from cow corner and makes no mistake! 116/5

    3.5 Muzarabani gets the breakthrough! Balbirnie makes room as he tries to slap away this back of length delivery. Gets a big top edge and Ryan Burl takes a good catch pedaling back from mid-off. Ireland lose both openers cheaply for the second game in a row 25/2
    0.6 Big appeal and given! It's on a length on middle and Stirling comes down the wicket to try and flick it away. He misses and is struck in front. Stirling thinks he had come down enough but he has to go. Ngarava gets him for the second time in this series! 8/1
    4.3 Tucker exposes the stumps again and this time Masakadza knocks the stumps over! Tucker goes for the sweep again and Masakadza aims it at the stumps and beats the shot! Ireland in trouble here! 29/3

    6.6 Gone! Campher was struggling here against Mavuta and the leggie gets the wicket finally! This was pitched up fuller and Campher was trying to turn it through midwicket. But the ball turns sharply to take the leading edge and Ryan Burl has no trouble grabbing that at cover! 37/4
