Live stream: http://www.bhejafry.net/livesports1?ch=31 (likely)



Mupariwa is injured, Mpofu comes in to replace him. Keith Dabengwa manages to hold on to his spot - perhaps playing Maruma would have been a better idea though, he is a better bowler (ie. he could have bowled 10 overs in tandem with Price) and on recent form maybe a better batsman...

Openers fail again - shock. At least Taibu and Williams are putting up a stand.

lets hope debengwa get a bit of a score

not a bad end to the innings. looks like we cant get into dabengwa bit longer now . its the first time the paks have bowled us all out too. good innings by williams taibu and dabengwa

Yeah, good charge by him to finish things off. Only thing that worries me now is that without Utseya and Mupariwa, the bowling might not be up to the job of containing Pakistan - they only need 4.9/over to win. If any of the Pakistan guys are allowed to cut loose, we'll be in trouble...

good start to the boys. early wicket to chigumbura

droped catch sounded very hard though

is the live stream working for any1 mine isnt!

Khalid Latif c Williams b Mpofu 19
Would have preferred to see Malik go - he's beginning to look dangerous - but that's a start...

Mpofu and Chigumbura seem to be getting a bit of a choke on the scoring. Any pressure helps...
