Onto the 5th and final ODI!
I named an uncahnged side, the pitch, similar to the last match, offers something for seamers and spinners, so i was expecting a low score. I won the toss and once again chose to bat.
Here are the line ups:
Zim innings
we started positvily as taylor hammered a 6 in the 1st over to get off the mark, and by the 10 over mark, we were going well on 44/0. Taylor then proceeded to through away his wicket, caught behind off haque attempting an audiacious cover drive. On 20 overs, masakadza hit yet another 50, from just 52 balls, the score was 87/1. Eventually, masakadza went, caught in the deep for 71, meaning that 30 overs in we were 139/2, taibu well set on 33. It wasen't long though before taibu threw away his start, being caught in the covers off reza for 37. As we began the final 10 overs, another of my batsmen got out after getting a start, raza was bowled by shuvo for 28. I then used my powerplay and the very next ball mutizwa went for an unimpressive 1, leaving us on 193/5. We recovered as waller hit out, and by the end of the innings we had reached a satisfactory 236/6, waller finishing on 56 not out from 50 balls.
