  • Zimbabwe and Pakistan lock horns in the second ODI at the Queen’s Sports Club in Bulawyo on Monday. The visitors lead the five-match series by 1-0 after a thumping 201-run win in the first ODI.

    The hosts suffered another setback ahead of the clash with batsman Malcolm Wallace pulling out of the squad after citing labour-practice laws. Skipper Hamilton Masakadza won the toss on a chilly morning at Bulawyo and elected to bat first.

    Zimbabwe lost opener Brian Chari early with Usman Khan picking up the wicket in the fourth over of the innings. The Pakistan pacer struck again in the eighth over when he had Chamu Chibhabha caught behind by Sarfraz Ahmed. Masakadza and Tarisai Musakanda then formed a 62-run partnership before the latter was dismissed by Hasan Ali.

    The Zimbabwe skipper was eventually dismissed by Shoaib Malik for 59. Ali then removed Ryan Murray to reduce Zimbabwe to 140-5. The hosts were ultimately bowled out for 194 runs with Usman Khan and Hasan Ali sharing seven wickets between them.

    In reply, Pakistan openers Fakhar Zaman and Imam-ul-Haq made a solid start and added 119 runs between themselves for the first wicket. Fakhar brought up a quick-fire half-century before his partner was run-out for 44 after a huge mix-up. Fakhar went on to register his second ODI ton as Pakistan headed towards a thumping win. The visitors ultimately chased down the total in 36 overs at the loss of only one wicket.
