    3.6 caught behind! Sibanda tried to cut off the back foot, but the ball bounced a touch extra and cramped him for room too as it slanted across him, he got a thin top edge through to Karthik 13/1
    15.1 bowled him! Jadeja bowled the one that went on with the arm from round the wicket. Masakadza tried to cut off the back foot but had no room because the ball was on middle and off. He got a bottom edge on to his stumps 45/4
    8.5 he's gone for a duck! After being tied down for so long, Taylor drives on the up against a good length ball that pitches around middle and off. He went hard at the ball and he thick edge flies quickly to Raina, who takes a sharp catch at second slip 23/2
    12.2 caught behind! That's a fine take from Karthik but Maruma is disappointed with the decision. He steps out of his crease and slogs across the line. There was a sound as the ball passed between the bat and the body, but replays show it beat the inside edge and brushed the thigh and nearly clipped leg stump. Karthik moved to his left and took it. Maruma's unlucky to be given out. 37/3
    35.2 and that's a huge blow for Zimbabwe! Mishra has his fourth! He delivered the quicker and straighter ball from the front of his hand, Williams tried to sweep on one knee but played a bit too early, he ended up gloving it and the ball lobbed over the keeper to first slip 133/8
    22.1 a rubbish ball, a poor shot and a simple catch at mid-on. Mishra bowled a rank long hop and Waller went back to try and smash it for a six over midwicket. He mis-timed it though and made contact with the bottom of his bat and lobbed the ball tamely to Mohit 72/5
    33.1 lbw! Once again a wicket falls on the first ball after drinks. Mishra bowls full and it is the one that goes straight on. Chigumbura pushes forward to defend and plays outside the line. He's hit right in front of the stumps, on the back thigh, and the umpire makes his decision quickly. chigumbura looked disappointed, I'm not sure if that's because he thought he edged it. 122/6
    33.6 caught at slip! Mishra slowed it up, flighting the ball, pitching on off and spinning away from the right-hander, Mutumbodzi pushed forward and away from his body to defend and edged it to Raina at second slip 126/7

    37.6 this was always likely to happen. Mushangwe cleared his front foot and slogged across the line, Mishra pitched outside off and spun the googly into the right-hander, beating the bat and hitting middle stump to pick up his fifth wicket. That's his maiden five-wicket haul in ODIs. 155/9

    39.5 Mishra has six and the record! He has 18 wickets in the series, equalling Srinath's record for most wickets in a bilateral series. Srinath took 18 in seven games in NZ in 2002-03. Mishra has 18 in five games. Vitori pushed tentatively from the crease at a flighted delivery and edged it to slip. 163/10

    0.4 bowled him! That is some delivery, it's gone clean through Pujara's defences. It pitched on a good length just outside off, drawing Pujara forward. The ball cut back into the right-hander, bursting through the gap between bat and pad and hitting the top of middle stump. He was out in similar fashion in the previous game 0/1
    10.3 Jarvis takes another wicket, Dhawan pushes at a good length delivery close to off stump, tight line, had to play at it, and it is a healthy edge through to Taylor 55/2
