Haris Rauf has castled Clive Madande and it is a series win for Pakistan! An amazing comeback after they were defeated via the DLS method in the series opener! Chasing 304 to win, Zimbabwe have been bowled out for 204 with Saim Ayub, Aamir Jamal, Haris Rauf and Abrar Ahmed taking two wickets each. Kamran Ghulam and Faisal Akram got one each. Earlier, Kamran Ghulam struck his first century in ODIs to propel Pakistan to a fighting 303/6. This is a second consecutive series win for Pakistan after they beat Australia Down Under earlier this year. They are shaping up well for the Champions Trophy 2025.
OUT! One more wicket for Pakistan and Kamran Ghulam this time is the bowler to have a W next to his name on the bowling scorecard. Faraz Akram comes up with a shot on the leg-side in an attempt to clear the field but has found the fielder in the deep. Faraz Akram c Abdullah Shafique b Kamran Ghulam 5(6)
OUT! Abrar Ahmed has got the wicket of Brian Bennett and it seems that Pakistan are heading towards a big win here. The southpaw tried to pull the ball but a top-edge ends up with Abdullah Shafique taking a good catch. Brian Bennett c Abdullah Shafique b Abrar Ahmed 37(27)
After 33 overs, Zimbabwe find themselves at 162/6 and at this point, Pakistan are well and truly on top here. Pakistan have not allowed Zimbabwe to settle down and have partnerships that could help them to chase down the target and the hosts are under pressure. But it is not over until it is over!
OUT! One more wicket for Aamir Jamal and Pakistan as this time, it is Sikandar Raza who has to depart! The right-hander went aerial on the on-side but found the fielder. Pakistan are tightening their grip on this contest. Sikandar Raza c Shafique b Aamir Jamal 16(25)
OUT! Aamir Jamal finally has his man as he castles Craig Ervine! The left-hander inside-edged the ball onto the stumps and Jamal has his first wicket after Ervine was dropped off the first ball of this over. Craig Ervine b Aamir Jamal 51(63)
FIFTY for Craig Ervine! The left-hander has played a good knock here and has kept Zimbabwe in the run-chase. A captain's knock this and he needs to continue and make it big from here on.
So 20 overs are done and Zimbabwe have managed to score 100 but not without losing four wickets. Pakistan have done well to put pressure on the hosts but Zimbabwe have two of their most experienced players in Sikandar Raza and Craig Ervine in the middle. A big partnership and this game can become interesting.
Zimbabwe delivered a better batting performance in the 3rd ODI, but with three wickets Pakistan will be confident to win this decider. A lot depends on this partnership.
Out! Unlucky for Tadiwanashe Marumani who was looking to form a strong partnership with Craig Ervine. Abrar Ahmed with the wicket. Tadiwanashe Marumanii lbw b Abrar Ahmed 24(30)
