Luke Jongwe to Babar Azam
OUT! CAUGHT! Massive moment in this game. The Pakistan skipper is out of here. The captain who was controlling this chase departs just when he was to change gears. Short ball around off, Babar looks to slam it over point but his bottom hand comes off the bat. He ends up slicing it to the man at sweeper cover. Wesley Madhevere there makes no mistake and takes the catch.

Richard Ngarava to Asif Ali
OUT! CAUGHT! Asif Ali fails again and this is turning out to be a nightmare for Pakistan. They are certainly digging a hole for themselves. Slower ball bowled into the surface. Asif Ali looks to sflat bat it over mid off but the lack of pace sees him just chip it to short cover. Substitute, Donald Tiripano there makes no mistake and takes the catch.

Luke Jongwe to Faheem Ashraf
Just a single off the last ball. Fantastic from Luke Jongwe. Just 6 off the over. The last ball is hit towards mid-wicket by Faheem. He keeps the strike with a single. 32 needed off the last 2 overs. Certainly Zimbabwe's game to lose now.

Blessing Muzarabani to Faheem Ashraf
OUT! CAUGHT! Faheem had to go for it but he does not get under it and departs. Pakistan have made a mess of this below-par chase. Full ball outside off, Faheem looks to hit it over long on but he does not get under it. He hits it to the left of long on. Burl there runs to that side and takes the catch.

Blessing Muzarabani to Danish Aziz
FOUR! Much-needed for Pakistan. First one for Aziz, is this the turning point for Aziz? Full toss on leg, Aziz hits it over square leg. There is a lot of vacant area there as square leg is up inside the circle. Gets a boundary!

Blessing Muzarabani to Danish Aziz
Dot! This is worth its weight in gold. Good length ball on middle and leg, Aziz punches it back to the bowler.

Blessing Muzarabani to Danish Aziz
OUT! RUN OUT! This might just be the final nail in the coffin here for Pakistan. The last batter, the batter who was set is out of here. Aziz in need of strike has fallen down. Good length delivery on middle and leg, Aziz hits it uppishly to the left of long on. Tarisai Musakanda gets to the ball quickly. Aziz calls for the second but it is a suicidal run. Tarisai Musakanda shows smartness as he sends the throw at the keeper's end. It is a decent throw too as it is close to the stumps. Regis Chakabva collects the ball and disturns the stumps. Danish Aziz is well short of the crease. Zimbabwe players are extatic. They know they have all but sealed this game.

Luke Jongwe to Usman Qadir
OUT! RUN OUT! Slower ball outside off. Usman Qadir swings but misses. Rauf wants the strike so he goes for the run. Usman is unsure. Chakabva keeps his calm and gives the ball to Jongwe who makes no mistake and whips the stumps at the non-striker's end.
