- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR16.1 chipped to deep backward square leg! Gets his timing but picks out the man... Munsey can't hit the afterburners today. The ball was full on the pads, inviting the lofted flick, but it flew flat towards the boundary rider who took an excellent stooping catch 98/40.6 length ball on fourth stump, Jones charges again but is nowhere near the pitch and slices a drive high over cover. Raza runs back 20 yards from the ring and takes a splendid over the shoulder catch while falling to the turf. 5/14.1 match-winning kind of catch from Madhevere at midwicket! Short ball on fourth stump, sat up for Cross to hammer a pull but he's picked out Madhevere launching himself to his left in the ring with a spectacular diving effort at chest height taken parallel to the ground. 24/29.3 full on middle, another slog sweep and finally Berrington picks out a fielder. Shumba is positioned 10 yards inside the rope at deep midwicket and takes a thigh high catch on his haunches. 64/319.3 full outside off, slapped to backward point! Jongwe plucks it from above his head, and MacLeod's labours are over. The ball was travelling, probably four had it cleared the man. But most things have stuck for Zimbabwe tonight, and the catch is smartly held 128/617.5 bowled 'im! Leg-stump yorker and it deflects off the pads and into the wicket. Leask's cameo is over, but he might finally have got Scotland motoring 119/5Extras16 (lb 10, nb 3, w 3)TOTAL132/6 (20 Overs, RR: 6.6)Fall of wickets: 1-5 (Michael Jones, 0.6 ov), 2-24 (Matthew Cross, 4.1 ov), 3-64 (Richie Berrington, 9.3 ov), 4-98 (George Munsey, 16.1 ov), 5-119 (Michael Leask, 17.5 ov), 6-128 (Calum MacLeod, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.3 back of a length on off stump, plays back down the wrong line. Huge lbw shout upheld. Chakabva walks down the track to have a chat with Ervine and they call for a review. The main doubt was whether or not he was hit in line with off stump because he shuffled some distance across. Impact is in line and the ball-tracking shows it was clipping the bails on umpire's call. Chakabva has to walk off but Zimbabwe keep the review. 4/116.6 Ervine falls, chipping down the ground! Tries to go over mid-off but gets under the shot, and MacLeod backtracks to take a comfortable catch. Zimbabwe's captain departs with the finish line almost in sight. Surely they're not going to muck it up from here... 119/51.4 drag on! Half-volley there to smash on eighth stump, but Madhevere's footwork is nowhere and he's playing a long way from his body, doesn't time it and an inside edge comes back onto the stumps. 7/27.6 half-tracker on middle, Williams shuffles across and whips a short-arm jab pull flat toward deep square leg, cries of "CATCH IT!" from Leask and it does carry just enough to Wheal coming in off the rope. Awkward sideways lunge from Wheal but he does manage to get his fingers underneath it for a clean catch. It looked clumsy on the slow motion replay but the third umpire is happy that the ball was not grassed. 42/314.6 gone! Just a feather behind! Superbly bowled by Davey, a slower ball into the pitch and Raza is through his pull shot too early. Just a flick of the glove, but the umpire spotted it. Big wicket. Do Scotland still have a glimmer? 106/4Extras4 (lb 2, nb 2)TOTAL133/5 (18.3 Overs, RR: 7.18)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Regis Chakabva, 0.3 ov), 2-7 (Wessly Madhevere, 1.4 ov), 3-42 (Sean Williams, 7.6 ov), 4-106 (Sikandar Raza, 14.6 ov), 5-119 (Craig Ervine, 16.6 ov)
