Good to see Mupariwa back in action, but Vitori once again shows that he's a definite strike bowler when he get's it right. I wonder how quickly he's bowling.

Time for sikandar raza to step up to the plate.

6 from 34! Should have just played his natural game probably suffered from stage fright...

2/117 with 22 overs remaining.

I've seen some spectacular Zimbabwe collapses, but this is quite an experienced Zimbabwean team so I would expect a comfortable win from here.

Mawoyo stepping up on the big stage again with 57 not out so far, his highest score in any format for quite a while. I would love to see this guy just cement his position as a Test specialist for Zimbabwe. Even if he ends his career with an average one-day record, he comes across a really gritty batsman - no great technique or power, but a guy who if he applies himself can get the job done. And in Test cricket those type of batsmen can flourish. If there was an entry for sheer determination in the dictionary, his 163* against Pakistan would appear. I hope he finishes his career with a Test average of over 40 - not an easy thing to do - but if he can do it he'd be one of Zimbabwe's best Test batsmen.
