    1.6 nicked and gone! Young with the early breakthrough! Back of a length in the channel adn this one, like the last ball, leaves the batter late. Marumani nibbles at it without much conviction and feathers it through to Tucker. Zimbabwe rocked early! 17/1

    9.5 knocks him over and Delany has two in the over! This seems like another shortish delivery that pitches and skids on. Might have kept a touch low too, at least judging by Bennett's reaction. He tried to pull it over cow corner but the lack of bounce, plus the extra pace off the surface, meant he could only muster an inside edge. Leg stump flattened, and Zimbabwe are four down! 67/4
    2.3 timbbbbberrrrrr, and Madhevere had no clue about that! Sharp arm-ball that starts outside off and boomerangs back in. Madhevere is not expecting it at all and is awfully late in getting his bat down. The ball whistles past his blade and thunders into the stumps. Ireland go back-to-back! 18/2
    9.1 Delany gets the big fish straightaway! Dragged down outside off, and the ball seems to hold in the surface, which causes Raza to miscue it. Does not get the power he wants on it and arrows it towards long on, where Harry Tector slides across to his left and snaffles up the chance. Raza is livid with himself and storms off. Ireland, meanwhile, thrilled to bits! 62/3
    13.4 goes straight up, and gobbled up by deep third! Length ball outside off and Burl thinks he can launch this downtown. Cuts across it too much, though, and gets the shot all wrong. Skews off the outside half of the bat and Young, running in from the fence, makes no mistake. Ireland keep chipping away! 94/5
    17.1 straight down Harry Tector's throat! Young goes short outside off and Munyonga's eyes light up. He gets his front hip out of the way and swings for the hills. Hits it well, hits it flat but also hits it straight to one of Ireland's safest catchers. A nice, little cameo, but someone else will have to provide that final-over charge now! 133/6
