SLA 1ST

OUT! Bowled. Brad Evans to Maheesh Theekshana. Half volley, off stump backing away cutting, missed. Zimbabwe complete a convincing victory as they win by 67 runs to get their first win of the Tri-Series. Sri Lanka lost two early wickets in a chase that never got going as Zimbabwe were always in control, after an excellent all-round display from their bowlers. Brad Evans was the star, taking three wickets for just nine runs, and well supported by Richard Ngarava, who claimed two. Dasun Shanaka was the only batter to make an impression with 34, as they lost wickets consistently. Sikandar Raza is the Player of the Match.

Over 20. 7 runs. Bowler: Dushmantha Chameera. Zimbabwe: 162/8(rr 8.10)

Dushmantha Chameera to Graeme Cremer. Reverse Swing-In full toss, middle stump on the front foot Slog, mis-timed to deep square leg for 1 run, fielded by Rajapaksa. That brings us to the end of Zimbabwe's innings, and they have posted a decent total of 162. Despite the loss of Marumani and Taylor inside the powerplay, Brian Bennett and Sikandar Raza both played fine innings as they formed the backbone of the innings, adding 61 together. Both would fall just short of a half century, as Sri Lanka's spinners bowled exceptionally well, with Hasaranga claiming three wickets, keeping the runs tight and taking wickets at regular intervals. Can the Sri Lankan batters chase down this total? Let's find out
