6.3 weak backfoot prod, no footwork, he chased it and a thin edge was caught by Taylor, although he did his best to drop it, as he has a number of other balls in the tournament to date. But he clung on, and Zimbabwe have the breakthrough 31/1

44.1 super catch by Matsikenyeri at deepish extra cover. Nazir looked to drive the ball but it was wide and he had to reach for it. He connected, but with limited power, and Matsikenyeri, the shortest man in the side, took a few steps back, jumped and held the ball above his head as he fell 295/7

40.1 from Mupariwa, driven to the man in the deep on the off, Younis Khan came back for the second and had the thrown from Mpofu been spot on that would have been easily out ... as it is it's referred to the third umpire and Younis is six inches short. We've knocked Taylor a few times but he did really well there to gather the high return and whip the bails off, and Mpofu did a great job in the deep 252/5

12.2 from Danish Kaneria, big heave from Matsikenyeri and he misses, Akmal goes for the stumping and he is back in ... sadly, the runner, Taylor, is standing a foot out of the crease, blissfully ignorant that he actually needs to be back inside the crease as well. 45/5
