Muzarabani to A Patel, out Caught by Sean Williams!! A full toss has got Muzarabani a wicket, but he won't mind. The crowd go berserk.

Cremer to Binny, out Caught by Chibhabha!! In the airrrrr and that's a brilliant take by Chibhabha. The umpires are checking though. Looked like a clean catch, but the third umpire has been asked to check. The soft signal is OUT, it's a legal delivery. That looks very comfortable to me, OUT it will be and Binny has to walk back. Flighted delivery from Cremer, Binny was cramped for room as he advanced and tried to go inside-out over cover, hit it much straighter, long-off ran forward, dived and took a very good low catch. End of a vital 36-run stand. Is this the opening Zimbabwe needed to seal the game? Binny c Chibhabha b Cremer 24(23) [4s-2]

Cremer to Binny, out K Jadhav Run Out!! 1 run completed. India have lost half their side now. Lazy running from Jadhav and he has to walk back to the hut. Binny walked down the track to a well flighted delivery and nudged it in front of square on the on-side, he was always coming back for the second. Jadhav took it far too casually, Muzarabani rushed in and made a direct hit at the bowler's end. Jadhav was cruising along and he's caught short of his ground. K Jadhav run out (Muzarabani) 5(6)

Cremer to M Pandey, out Lbw!! Two wickets in the over for Cremer, India are in some trouble now. Manish will feel unlucky though, the replays suggest it was sliding well down the leg-stump. This was the slider from Cremer, it went straight on after pitching, Pandey was looking to work it towards the on-side and missed. The impact was marginally outside leg. Manish bags a duck to end his tour. M Pandey lbw b Cremer 0(3)

Utseya to Rahane, out Rahane Run Out!! Disaster for India. The captain has been sold down the river by his partner.
