successfully won the toss. Captain sauna Wayne did not hesitate to bat first in excellent batting conditions, excellent surface, fast pitch and Sri Lanka debuted. to charmika gunasekara and quite a few changes in the Sri Lanka Zimbabwe line-up, two few familiar faces, but with the retirement of players like Brendan Taylor they have some gaps to fill, now we are ready for some, let's cross over and join our first commentators. it's uh favis marouf and sikandar bhakt so here we are we all know that draws were held.

Zimbabwe decided to bat first in this version of the 50-over game. He played competitive cricket at the end of 20. 21. is the opener. bad right-hander, we know his capabilities, he is a better than average player shown there and along with him who is against the initial slot, soft hands very well done, on that occasion, good decision by the non-striker and Zimbabwe is off The Mark with that single. like witty and he's throwing his hands towards it, he gets the first boundary, that's something you can't do when dressing in Cricket dipping with the best bears a little shorter, he walked away well before passing Square Lake, he played it with full control knowing that the field is there next to the square legumpa and then you get something like that, they charge it, that is so important that a bad delivery must be ruled out and they are doing it with perfection so far driven and beautifully done, that is a limit since 50's onwards Era Zimbabwe and they look good.

Top edge to the third man who will break away for four shots. He is good. Shout. He is good. This will be very, very close. They are giving him a slow death. The finger that simply appears in almost slow motion. The fans approach. I'm alive right now and what a special ball this was, he bought some legs until now, he didn't pick it right up front and that's a special delivery, his partner in the non-striker antenna, you can't refer that that's Stone, a great attractive and he's on his way, he's played a good hand, but he's on his way back, try Tano for 42 Zimbabwe, 80 for one, the bad guy brings the new battle, Captain Craig Irvine, there you go, shoot that one, the radar is off, but the idea is that what he was talking about is that he is mixing it up and he hit it too, he just helped him on his way Chicago, he did it on a full toss and sent him for a maximum smash, that's almost long enough to reach a limit. the hundred for Zimbabwe 103 for one with that boundary and brings Chicago closer to their 50. one shot, yes, just show me a push and it reaches their 50. 454 takabwa 50 or 49. five boundaries and a six in that brilliantly played is 19 almost got to 106 for one oh my goodness he stayed under just a reaction from Craig Irma and he tells you he passed yeah but he just falls over the fraction and that's hit by some hits on his first Tom right around the Wicket. he just kept coming in through the gate, he just played outside the line of the ball, he just came in squarely through the gate and just clipped the outside of the off stump for Skipper to come back for nine Zimbabwe 110 for two, the former captain John Williams exits. and he also has those numbers that speak a lot about his experience here.

The left-handed battle went for the shot put. He went into the air and has all the way. And asking for reception, they are asking for reception because. he was clearly off the line they were sweeping from outside the off stump kusalem Mendes was calling for the catch yes, they referred him let's see he will throw through he will throw through yes, I am satisfied, I am satisfied, there is a clear Spike has the ball next to the umpire from back field Kumar please Kuma can you stay with you yes you are on camera but I was saying I had to change this decision, reverse it because Sri Lanka just got the bad guys in Chicago to do a good job.

Goalkeeper Kusal Mendes had the presence of mind to catch it for 72. That's three for 160. And he hits that one, he just crushes it, he's gone all the way. uh, let's just double check. What is a limit? It's a limit. Williams on 49. The outstretched arm of that bowling has moved on, but the 50 is here. 33rd ODI 50 for Sean Williams, a good knock, an important one to set a total that requires good play, like the senior statesman that Sean Williams is, hold onto it. Wesley Madre seemed to have a little bit of an inside edge on that and this is the dismissal obesity that just completely missed and formed a little bit and figured out that the gateway between the bat and the pad Wesley has to take that long walk and Bobby lost his fort, he left after scoring 20. 202 for 4.

It was made that over Point Rich was there, he has to be punished for that and gives four to Secunder Raza and Zimbabwe, you want Pradeep, oh that has to be out, has to be out a pradeep hits second the rasa playing the other side that was down and uh Sri Lanka has the Wicket they wanted a slow ball got the hand look Plumb in front is Edition Hannibal very important because, like I said, it's nothing like getting rid of the batsman's settlement when the starts are approaching sikandaraza is gone for 18 for 17 Zimbabwe 248 for five the batsman is Ryan Pearl up and down Burl is on his way gets a boundary we have number two in the wave in this time what's the difference outside of Austin and Randburg they managed to catch up previously, they were much more complete and closer to Ryan Bull, but this time the Yorker's perfect White House got rid of Ryan Bull for four Zimbabwe lost the six for 252.

That en Wellington, Massachusetts took a big hit. The rate really does not average seven 259 for six zero caught with this time the slow ball in the field towards the bullet itself and Charmham has the presence of Mind, as I mentioned, getting rid of Masakadza is the best way to put the brakes on. on scoring rates for picking up wickets exactly what Sri Lankans are doing for six Zimbabwe 269-7 oh what a shot, how short, it's six, it's six Sean Williams just dismissed it from his presence 99 and now he's 100 , he is running the first round strong, he wants to come back for two, just one, but that is enough to get his fifth ODI hundred and what an excellent knock, 86 balls, nine balls and two sixes, talking about an experienced man who managed to overcome exactly what that Sean Williams did and it's also so fluid. the fast delivery, the slow delivery, they can Pace Sean Williams swinging but he has done the excellent job of it now it comes to an end and Sean Williams playing everything in the midwicket failing everything says that you fail.

I hit important because it solves Sean Williams, he went for exactly 100 for 87, very well played, Sean at 185 for eight, that time is definitely worth it. Mozambani swings and misses, making sure the borrowed one wasn't there. for three Zimbabwe 286 for nine short deliveries goes off the mark gets a H4 not a great finish the last to deliver is a great full toss a slower delivery that was dragged down and then Gravel got 10 for two very good performance by Zimbabwe 296 for nine has been a very strong and brilliant batting performance by them, particularly by the top order and uh 42 and 72 at the top and then uh Williams a magnificent hundred 37 balls nine fours and two Sixers Chicago for 72 caitano 42 and Brava finishing ten of two balls 296 for nine boats in front preparing the foundation with 80 Irvine and chakabo with 30 Williams the pilot of the Raza boat all are contributing to finish at 296 for nine only for Sri Lanka and Charming Circus starting the procedure which has been quite very impressive picking up a couple of weekends Charming Colorado coming for you on the last tour he picked up three panda let's say he picked up two 44 seven runs per robot so Sri Lanka will have to chase 297 and just under six runs towards Nova, her partner, however, is a long-known quality cricketer Michelle Mendes 2228 runs an average of 30.

The first few runs here for Sri Lanka just to gently push the hips and the bats can come back for two , what a shot off the back foot was distracted to finish. the over with the cover boundary six no loss after the one oh the length is wrong square of the wicked they will hit you all day on that base that edge won't work 124 clicks and going for a boundary shot Matt is a beautiful shot with the legs thrown by uh tendai chatara on this occasion too straight and went through the side space and further around he can't do anything he flew away is the length, that is the problem here that is costing him runs, it was easy save that, oh, it has been beaten in the middle of the field, anger is not always the quickest, gone for four, another boundary to finish the over, oh that's sublime, there were two mistakes before, they tried to cover the gaps in that off-field game. but uh the Sri Lankan batsman right now doesn't care, kussal Mendes gets it done, it's another beautiful knock, he hasn't even hit it again, bowled from tatar and just a gentle push towards the ground and another boundary, oh look Oh. well, I'll repeat myself if I say borrowed again, it's all the time in the world to drag him in from outside the Ostrom and touch him in the middle, he has the advantage and yes, the Rudy Kurtzen style finger appears possibly if anything. just a little extra bounce but as you say it was there to be hit, it's a wicket for Zimbabwe, not a very good delivery but very easily they have taken it to the limit again but the result is what Zimbabwe wanted, a wicket and eh. is the important Kuusalem Industry Wicket going for 26.

Sri Lanka 14 for one, this number three comes to mind, the back foot that was short and wide and had a short delivery time again, don't bowl that length to that rhythm on this surface. it becomes easy he just stood up and nisanka just helped him through the consecutive midwicket boundaries the 50s onwards. Good shot played very late, very, very late, in fact, using the pace, playing late and doing it well, it's six. It's for a long distance for a very long distance coming Mendes moving within the line using the boundaries using the base and just helping him on his way oh that's what we've been talking about that's exactly what we've been talking about coming the repair he's trying to open up that offside a little bit, he's too close to that stop and he turns back and just cuts it off with his thumbs.

Complete silence takes over the stadium, some fantastic shots and the baller emerges victorious in the end, dragging him towards the inside edge of the bed trying to protect him to third man and that bowler is letting out a bit of frustrations after going for some boundaries, ends with a wicket and disappointingly returns for 17. Sri Lanka 81 for two, the last dismissal brings his chandima pics to start and there is no midricard founding it easily on the way to nisanka Christmas comes early another short delivery This time by Ryan bow and padam Miss Sanka the man in form is not going to waste that opportunity Sri Lanka making a 100 move to come in the 17th somewhere I feel the bat also understands that single allows nasanka to get his first ODI 50. or 48 deliveries great moment for the young man it's just a great start from the ridges to cover, he is now convinced that it would be very interesting they have turned out well now keep rolling keep rolling can you freeze it there please? can you freeze it there please yes there is a clear as a ball Spike next to the bed and there is no space between beta and the ball Go back to Enfield Empire please Linden you need to change your decision, not take out your own camera, a third Very important wicket.

Zimbabwe has made very important progress. He has done very well tonight and is going for 75 and 71. Sri Lanka is now three down for 147. I think Nasanka's departure brings Charit Asa

lanka

down over midwicket a bounce for four very important very very important beginning of the short over this time charitas backs a punch and a big Six coming out what a shot 50 for chandimal has been there time and again for Sri Lanka such a reliable batsman there for the middle order oh he came down and bowled that towards the middle fence ie , it was a serious shot that he received just below, that out of nowhere showed that aggression, he was being the calmest young man. making great strides and one international and P20 internationals playing their nine games, four half cents is already an average of 47.

Brilliant things, very good things retired and that's going to go for another limit, so Sri Lanka are really looking towards the finish line now. This time finishing a Shortman record it looks like Craig Irwin held on to that catch pretty easy. Grava did well, you would have liked to have been there at the end and seen him through to the end for Sri Lanka. Craig Urban took a good low diving catch for his certain and has a second feeling that it is probably too late for Zimbabwe, but Dennis Chandamal takes his hat off to him, good knocking 75 in 91 balls Sri Lanka now four down for 276. the Heralds Shanaka's innings oh that's all that's very very good and that has crossed the fine leg limit six runs oh that looks like a good appeal it looks like a very good appeal and the umpire agrees and it has crossed the line it has uh charitas coming out of the impact referee's decision because when we hit we stayed seated come back,please Puma can you keep your original outfit, well there you go, yes this brings to an end what has been a very very entertaining entry.

It is a pity that Cherry Dasilanka can get over the line, but she is well in bed for a 71 and only 68 balls that Sri Lanka lose their fifth 292. she walked away, that will reach the limit and with it will bring victory for Sri Lanka. It's been a fantastic Chase, very professional in the way they've approached it and it gives them a one-no-one advantage. In this three match series, a fantastic effort from the home team, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat first Sean Williams LED from the front at 100, supported by Chicago 72 and 81 and debut Kaitano with 42 and 50 .3 for 69. for chamaka karuna ratney with the ball for Sri Lanka and then Nissan can chandival 75 each and 71 for assalanka only three wickets from garawa Sri Lanka win this first won the international by five wickets
