Murray was unlucky not to get to his maiden ODI fifty. Peter Moor also played his hand, he remained unbeaten till the end along with Chigumbura. For Pakistan, Nawaz and Hasan took two apiece. No other bowler had a wicket to his name but the important thing is that they were quite frugal throughout. Stay tuned for the presentation in a bit.

It all started with Hamilton Masakadza and Tinashe Kamunhukamwe adding a 66-run stand for the first wicket before the latter departed to Nawaz. Hasan then bowled a beauty to get rid of the skipper. Two wickets in quick succession and at that time, it seemed like the visitors would once again run through the batting line-up but that did not happen. Prince Masvaure and Ryan Murray took their time and added a 78-run stand.

So, Pakistan have inflicted a whitewash. Well, that was very much expected at the start of the day. Another thumping performance from them. Zimbabwe though will be a lot more happier with their batting performance in this game. Although they never looked like chasing this massive target, their batsmen showed character and will to play out the 50 overs.
