    Muzarabani to Chameera
    And Sri Lanka have done it! Length ball on off, Chameera chips it in the air but safe towards deep midwicket and they easily run two. Zimbabwe fall agonisingly short, Sri Lanka scrape through by the skin of their teeth as they take a 1-0 lead in the series!

    Muzarabani to Chameera
    And would you believe it, Chameera has somehow found a boundary! Short ball, Chameera goes for the pull and doesn't know much about it, but it flies over the keeper and one bounce over the ropes!
    19.4

    Muzarabani to Angelo Mathews
    Mathews holes out! Length ball and Mathews goes for all the marbles, but he can't get enough on it. The slog sweep is held on to well by Masakadza at deep midwicket!

    Muzarabani to Angelo Mathews
    Another short one, pace-off but this time Mathews can't get bat on it
    19.2

    Muzarabani to Angelo Mathews
    Now down to third man! Deftness under pressure from Mathews! Short ball follows Mathews, but he just opens the face and guides this between the keeper and a very fine short third
    19.1
    4
    Muzarabani to Angelo Mathews
    Lofted down the ground! Perfect start to the over if you're a Sri Lankan. This was full and straight, Mathews makes room and strikes a dream lofted drive
    18.6

    Ngarava to Shanaka
    Scooped for four! It's another missed yorker, Shanaka goes across, gets low and plants this scoop to perfection!
    18.5
    0
    Ngarava to Shanaka
    full and straight, Ngarava gets down quickly to his right in his follow through to save a crucial single here
    18.5
    1
    Ngarava to Shanaka
    Short, and the umpire says it's too far down leg. And what's this? It looks like Raza is asking for a review. He thinks there might have been some bat here as Shanaka had hung his bat in the air as the ball passed. Replays though show the bat is nowhere near the ball
    18.4
    4
    Ngarava to Shanaka
    Finds the boundary! Misses the yorker this time, as Shanaka takes the low full toss and carves this to the point boundary!
    18.3
    0
    Ngarava to Shanaka
    Cracking yorker! Just misses offstump, but crucially Shanaka misses too
    18.2
    1
    Ngarava to Angelo Mathews
    full and straight, whipped towards deep midwicket. Just the single
    18.1
    1
    Ngarava to Shanaka
    short ball, 132kph, looks to pull but this one rushes him. Miscue goes towards short cover for one
    18.1
    1
    Ngarava to Shanaka
    Looks for the wide yorker but this is too wide outside off
    17.6
    1
    Jongwe to Shanaka
    low full toss slapped hard but long-off is in place
    17.5
    1
    Jongwe to Angelo Mathews
    Full on off, Mathews looks to work this onside but is struck on the front pad - outside the line of off - as they run one. Looks like there might have been some bat there too
    17.4
    1
    Jongwe to Shanaka
    full and quick now, Shanaka makes room and leathers this drive into the covers but deep cover point keeps it to one
    17.3
    0
    Jongwe to Shanaka
    Slower ball deceives Shanaka! Short leg cutter and Shanaka is early on the pull as he misses
    17.2
    1
    Jongwe to Angelo Mathews
    full and straight on off, dug out down to long-on for a single. Better from Jongwe, Zimbabwe need more of that
    17.1

    Jongwe to Angelo Mathews
    Mathews with the scoop! This was a good length outside off, but Mathews goes across and lifts this over fine leg in the circle
