Aamir Kaleem c Dion Myers b Blessing Muzarabani 5 7 1 0 71.43

3.3

Blessing Muzarabani to Aamir Kaleem, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust and Zimbabwe are on a rampage here. Blessing Muzarabani bangs it in a bit short and wide outside off. Aamir Kaleem throws the hands at it and slices it down to deep third. Dion Myers completes the catch and Oman lose their third wicket inside the first 4 overs.

Jatinder Singh (C) b Blessing Muzarabani 5 5 1 0 100

1.1

Blessing Muzarabani to Jatinder Singh, OUT! TIMBER! That is a perfect length from Blessing Muzarabani. A massive wicket for Zimbabwe. On a length, on off, and it nips in a shade. Jatinder Singh stays deep in his crease and looks to block it, but the ball goes through his bat and his pad, and hits the top of middle. What a start from Blessing Muzarabani, dismissing the Oman skipper for only 5!

Hammad Mirza c Brendan Taylor b Richard Ngarava 0 5 0 0 0

2.2

Richard Ngarava to Hammad Mirza, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! That was not a wicket-taking delivery and the bowler is really lucky. Second wicket falls for Oman. Short of a length, outside off, Hammad Mirza stays back and tries to pull it, but misses it completely. Gets a feather and the keeper, Brendan Taylor, behind the stumps, makes no mistake. Hammad Mirza departs without scoring.

Karan Sonavale c Brendan Taylor b Blessing Muzarabani 0 6 0 0 0

3.6

Blessing Muzarabani to Karan Sonavale, OUT! ANOTHER CAUGHT BEHIND! Wicket number four down, and Oman are sinking fast. Muzarabani bangs it in short and hostile, climbing awkwardly into the ribs. Sonavale is rushed, half fends and half hopes, only to glove it through. The ball lobs kindly to the keeper, and Brendan Taylor accepts the simplest of catches, moving to his left. 3 for 5 in 2 overs of Muzarabani. Exceptional.

Wasim Ali b Sikandar Raza 3 8 0 0 37.5

6.6

Sikandar Raza to Wasim Ali, OUT! TIMBER! Oh, that's a gem of a delivery from Sikandar Raza. Excellent change-up from the Zimbabwe skipper. This is flighted up, full and on middle. The ball goes straight on with the arm and doesn't spin. Wasim Ali leans on and plays down the wrong line. The ball goes through the gate between bat and pad, castling into the stumps. Oman are reeling at 27/5 now.

Sufyan Mehmood c Tashinga Musekiwa b Brad Evans 25 39 2 0 64.1

16.2

Brad Evans to Sufyan Mehmood, OUT! CAUGHT! Brad Evans comes back in and sends the set batter back to the hut. This is dug in short and around off, Sufyan Mehmood rocks back and looks to climb into the pull. However, he gets it off the top edge, and the ball flies down to deep square leg. Tashinga Musekiwa settles under it well and gobbles it up. It was actually the cross-seamer from Evans and Mehmood has to walk back after a fighting knock of 25 (39).

Vinayak Shukla (W) c Brendan Taylor b Richard Ngarava 28 21 4 0 133.33

14.1

Richard Ngarava to Vinayak Shukla, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Richard Ngarava strikes right after the Drinks break. Short of a length, outside off, and he gets some extra bounce off the surface. Vinayak Shukla gets caught by surprise as he looks to play at it. It pings him on the gloves and lobs to the right of the keeper, Brendan Taylor, who dives and takes a good low catch. The partnership worth 42 (43) is broken.

Jiten Ramanandi c Dion Myers b Richard Ngarava 1 3 0 0 33.33

14.6

Richard Ngarava to Jiten Ramanandi, OUT! TAKEN! Richard Ngarava gets his third wicket. Back of a length, on middle and leg, Jiten Ramanandi shuffles across and looks to pull it, but is not in control. He gets a top edge as the ball flies towards short mid-wicket. Dion Myers runs across to his left and completes the catch. Oman continue to crumble. 3-1-9-3 - Richard Ngarava is having a big impact.

Nadeem Khan c Brian Bennett b Brad Evans 20 18 1 1 111.11

19.5

Brad Evans to Nadeem Khan, OUT! STUNNING CATCH! One of the catches of the tournament already from Brian Bennett, and that is some way to close out the innings from Zimbabwe. Back-of-the-hand slower ball, shorter and angled into the batter. Nadeem Khan hangs deep and clubs the pull high and wide of deep mid-wicket. Bennett runs to his right and puts in a full-fledged horizontal dive, grabbing the ball, and he even manages to hold on when his elbows thud into the turf, absolutely stunning. Evans ends with three wickets, and Oman are bowled out for 103 in 19.5 overs!

Shakeel Ahmed b Brad Evans 4 5 0 0 80

19.1

Brad Evans to Shakeel Ahmed, OUT! DRAGGED ON! Brad Evans comes around the wicket and goes full, tailing the ball back in from outside off. Shakeel Ahmed stays deep in the crease and walks across, looking to heave it away. However, he only manages an inside edge and the ball goes off the pads and onto the stumps. Evans gets his second wicket and Oman are now 96/9!

3.1

Sufyan Mehmood to Tadiwanashe Marumani, OUT! CAUGHT! Top catch from Wasim Ali and Oman have their first breakthrough. Sufyan Mehmood comes around the wicket and has the keeper upto the stumps. This is bowled a bit short and wide, and Tadiwanashe Marumani throws the hands at it. Marumani doesn't control the shot and hits it uppishly to the right of backward point. Wasim leaps up and across to his right and clings onto the ball. Marumani departs for a breezy 21 off 11 balls.

Dion Myers c Vinayak Shukla b Sufyan Mehmood 0 2 0 0 0

3.3

Sufyan Mehmood to Dion Myers, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! That is a fantastic catch from the keeper, and he was certain it was out. Sufyan Mehmood pitches the ball further up on off and creates an angle from wide of the crease. The ball angles in, and Dion Myers lunges ahead to play it through the covers. The ball goes past the inside edge and just past the leg stump as Vinayak Shukla pouches it brilliantly and even dislodges the bails to bring the double opportunity into play. The appeal for a catch is turned down, but the review is taken. Third umpire confirms that there is an inside edge, and Myers is in and out quickly. Zimbabwe are 29/2 after 3.3 overs.
