	MA Vermeulen	c Junaid Siddique b Mahbubul Alam	5	2	5	1	0	100.00
	1.3 gone! Bangladesh have broken through early, slightly short on middle and leg, stays his ground and flicks it straight to short midwicket where Junaid holds on to a sharp catch, timed it well but could not keep it down 5/1
	H Masakadza	c Raqibul Hasan b Mohammad Ashraful	21	55	36	1	1	58.33
	15.2 that was totally unnecessary from Masakadza! Tossed it up outside off, came down the track, struck it well but didn't get the desired elevation or distance, straight down long-on's throat where Raqibul takes a good low catch 87/2
	CK Coventry	not out	194	191	156	16	7	124.35
	BRM Taylor†	lbw b Enamul Haque jnr	9	20	18	0	0	50.00
	20.4 gone this time! Angling it in towards middle again, not spinning it too much, Taylor got across the line to turn it into the leg side, missed it again was struck right in front of middle and off, the umpire had no hesitation this time and raised his finger immediately 102/3
	SC Williams	b Naeem Islam	4	9	10	0	0	40.00
	23.5 Zimbabwe are sliding here! Short on the off stump, sensed an opportunity there, rocked back to smash it over midwicket, didn't come on to him as quickly as he expected, ended up getting an inside edge straight onto the stumps 111/4
	S Matsikenyeri	run out (Shakib Al Hasan/†Mushfiqur Rahim)	37	68	55	1	0	67.27
	41.2 from Shakib Al Hasan, dropped and run-out, full on middle, crashes it back towards the bowler who palms it away with his outstretched hands, struck really hard, Matsikenyeri calls for a single but is sent back a little too late, by then Shakib has recovered and hurled a throw back to the keeper who takes off the bails in time to find him short 218/5
	E Chigumbura	c Naeem Islam b Enamul Haque jnr	15	19	12	1	1	125.00
	46.4 Chigumbura has holed out! When he connected it, it seemed he would clear the ropes easily but ended up getting more elevation than distance, tried to clear long-on but found Naeem who didn't have to move much to pouch that 282/6
	MN Waller	b Mahbubul Alam	3	8	5	0	0	60.00
	48.6 bowled'im! Full and straight, tries to crack it over the bowler's head, misses and the stumps take a beating! 302/7
	T Mupariwa	lbw b Syed Rasel	0	1	1	0	0	0.00
	49.2 slower one bowled just outside leg stump and cutting in, he tries to work it past square leg, is struck on the pads and is given! Pitched outside leg that one, Coventry will have to wait 303/8

	44.3 he's gone now, finally! Tossed up outside off, stepped out of the crease and tried to whack him over midwicket, got the leading edge and Sibanda took it well running to his left at short fine 279/5
	Junaid Siddique	c Williams b Masakadza	38	48	27	5	0	140.74
	9.4 gone, Williams takes a sharp one at point, short and wide, goes for the cut, fails to keep it down and Williams tries to hold on to it over his head, it slips out and he juggles on a couple of occasions to snap it in the end, held his nerve there 68/1
	Mohammad Ashraful	c Coventry b Price	10	30	28	0	0	35.71
	16.5 gone, Ashraful's patience was being tested and Ray Price has snapped him with a tossed-up delivery. Much slower through the air, gave it plenty of air, Ashraful was tempted, made room and tried to hoick it over the in-field on the off side but couldn't keep it down, Coventry was positioned perfectly at extra cover and though that was struck hard, he was sharp to react and hold on, big blow. 94/2
	Raqibul Hasan	b Price	35	68	55	1	0	63.63
	36.2 got him! Price is uncontrollable, sending off Raqibul. Went straight on, landed on middle, Raqibul made room to cut, it kept low, he missed and the middle stump was out of the ground 213/3
	Shakib Al Hasan*	c Waller b Masakadza	19	13	12	2	1	158.33
	39.6 Shakib's gone! Was done in by the slower one, landed full on the off, he couldn't restrain himself there, tried to dismiss it over long-on, ended up miscuing it straight to Waller at long-off who takes it comfortably, is there a twist? 246/4
	Mushfiqur Rahim†	lbw b Utseya	15	30	15	0	0	100.00

Bangladesh in Zimbabwe ODI Series - 3rd ODI Score card

Zimbabwe 323/7 (50 ov)

Bangladesh 8/2 (1.3 ov)

Bangladesh won the toss and elected to field

• Bangladesh in Zimbabwe ODI Series - 3rd ODI
• ODI no. 2872 | 2009 season
• Played at Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo
• 14 August 2009 (50-over match)

	Zimbabwe innings (50 overs maximum)		R	B	4s	6s	SR
	MA Vermeulen	c Mahmudullah b Mahbubul Alam	11	18	2	0	61.11
	3.6 What a soft dismissal. Vermeulen, who was looking so good, is gone. It was full and slipping to the legs, it could have been on driven anywhere but Vermeulen flicked it straight to short midwicket. 17/2
	V Sibanda	c †Mushfiqur Rahim b Mahbubul Alam	0	2	0	0	0.00
	1.4 Wow! what a delivery. Don't blame Sibanda for edging it. It curved away late from a good length and clipped the outer edge as Sibanda pushed at it; he had to play at it. It did just enough to get the edge. There is no use getting dramatic big movement and missing the bat. Perfect delivery. 6/1
	H Masakadza	b Syed Rasel	102	112	4	2	91.07
	38.6 Rasel cleans him up with a slower one. His special- the off cutter. Masakadza shaped for the big slog across the line but was beaten by the lack of pace. Fine innings comes to an end. A very good partnership with Taylor. 202/4
	CK Coventry	run out (Mehrab Hossain jnr/†Mushfiqur Rahim)	22	20	3	1	110.00
	11.2 from Enamul Haque jnr, What a mess. What terrible misunderstanding between the two. It was flicked past square leg and the fielder (Mehrab) ran in from deep square leg. Clearly they had to stop at a single as they never seemed sure of the second. But they turned for the second run, hesitated mid-way, tried to carry on forward but too late folks. The throw was accurate and Rahim whips off the bails in glee. Gone! 60/3
	BRM Taylor†	run out (Raqibul Hasan/†Mushfiqur Rahim)	94	103	2	1	91.26
	47.2 from Shakib Al Hasan, Taylor is run out, going for the second run. It was pushed towards long-off and Chigumbura pushed for the second run. Taylor rushed across and even tried to dive into the crease but the throw was accurate and fast and Rahim did the rest. A very fine knock from Taylor comes to an end. 292/5
	E Chigumbura	not out	61	33	3	5	184.84
	S Matsikenyeri	c Tamim Iqbal b Shakib Al Hasan	23	9	0	2	255.55
	49.2 And he is gone now. He tries to slog sweep from outside off stump but gets a leading edge and presents a dolly to short third-man fielder. Handy little innings, though. 319/6
	MN Waller	c Mehrab Hossain jnr b Shakib Al Hasan	2	2	0	0	100.00
	49.5 Shakib gets one more wicket. Another slog sweep attempted, another edge, and it's caught at midwicket 322/7

	Tamim Iqbal	c Vermeulen b Mupariwa	0	1	0	0	0.00
	0.1 Mupariwa has struck gold first ball. It was a lovely curving delivery around the off stump, Tamim stabbed it, without moving his feet, straight to first slip. Mupariwa celebrates as if he is rocking a baby. Memories of Bebeto, Romario from the World Cup football. Here we go. What a start. 0/1
	Naeem Islam	b Chigumbura	4	3	1	0	133.33
	1.3 Two down now! What a start for Zimbabwe. Naeem, the pinch hitter, backed outside leg stump and went for the good-old slog - he pulled off similar shots in the first ODI - but missed it completely. The stump has gone for a walk. 8/2
