Osama Azeem: "Did they complete one run on that Nurul Hasan run out? Looked like he was just completing the first run, in that case, total should be 149 only. " Nurul finished the first and was turning for the second.
Another comment from Osama: "So basically those 2 drop catches of Afif Hosain only costed Zimbabwe 6 extra runs luckily, that six of Afif in Sikander Raza's 19th over. It could have been more costly. Lets see how costly these 6 runs are for them. "
Thanks, Shashank.
Zimbabwe have a chase on their hands, and it ain't going to be straightforward. They started superbly with the ball, but fell apart a bit in the middle, partly due to their fielding. Runs came in torrents after the halfway mark and it wasn't until they broke the Shakib-Shanto stand did they get a semblance of normalcy to proceedings. They've made 87 off the last 10 overs. Make no mistake, this has been among the better batting performances from Bangladesh in recent times. Can their bowlers step up to keep their campaign alive? Ekanth will be back for the chase shortly.

Raza is fuming as he storms off after picking up his cap from the umpire. Ervine gives him a pat. Ngavara to bowl out here

Sensonga: "Has Ervine miscalculated? Muzarabani is not going to bowl out his 4! Why would that be?"

VaChikafu: "16.1 "The wheels are coming off" ... if I had powers, I'd strikethrough that, it was a second too quick LOL" -- As it happens often, eh?
