24.4
Sikandar Raza to Pathum Nissanka, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Important breakthrough for Zimbabwe and a good review taken to dismiss the set Pathum Nissanka. A flatter and slightly shorter delivery outside off by Raza. Nissanka looks to run it fine towards the off side. But the ball catches the outside edge of his blade and Regis Chakabva takes a good catch behind the stumps. He appeals and is very confident but the umpire is unmoved. Zimbabwe decide to take a review and the replays roll in. The UltraEdge shows that Nissanka has got an edge on that one and he has to walk back after playing a superb knock.

6.4
Blessing Muzarabani to Kusal Mendis, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Zimbabwe get the breakthrough and it is of Kusal Mendis who was looking so good. Credit to Blessing Muzarabani, he uses his height as he generates some extra bounce here. On a length, outside off. Kusal Mendis looks to cut but gets a faint outside edge to the keeper who pouches it comfortably. Zimbabwe will feel a bit relaxed now.

Richard Ngarava to Dinesh Chandimal, OUT! CAUGHT! Dinesh Chandimal departs but it is little too late for Zimbabwe. Another short delivery on the body. Dinesh Chandimal pulls it but fails to keep it along the ground. Craig Ervine at short mid-wicket takes a good diving catch to his right and Richard Ngarava gets his second wicket. End of a superb knock by the senior batter.

47.6
Richard Ngarava to Charith Asalanka, OUT! LBW! Charith Asalanka departs and Richard Ngarava gets another one.
