We could bet that not even Sikandar Raza thought this outcome while choosing to bat first. At first, when Brian Bennett and Tadiwanashe Marumani started the innings, they dealt in boundaries and it looked like Zimbabwe are up for the task but once Bennett fell, the floodgates opened up. Zimbabwe lost six wickets inside 10 runs. It never looked like Zimbabwe would uplift themselves at any point in the game.
A sorry looking batting card. Really hard to express anything about Zimbabwe right now. It was a must win game for them to keep the series alive but they have produced one of the worst possible outcomes with the bat. Zimbabwe are bowled out for just 57. They chose to bat first but not in their wildest dream they saw this coming.
