The Zimbabwe team mates are out of their seats racing onto the field to embrace Raymond Price who has played a major part in this win.

A huge win for Zimbabwe who now take a 1-0 lead in this 3-match series.

A low scoring affair but it did end in a lot of excitement for a very small crowd.

Bangladesh has to look at their batting tactics, once again some poor shot selections has left them with mud in their faces. Their bowling was good, but the bowlers just did not have enough runs to play with.

For Zimbabwe, this will be a huge boost in confidence.

So with Price being awarded the Man of the Match award we say good night until Wednesday for the 2nd ODI

Nazmul Hossain to Price, FOUR, Shuffles down the pitch, swings that fullish ball across the line, beating a diving midwicket, and swings the game back towards Zimbabwe

Now we are down to the last over, 6 runs needed off six balls, and two wickets by Bangladesh. Again discussions about the bowler and Nazmul Hossain is given the task of winning it for Bangladesh
