Raza’s 76 n/o lifts Zimbabwe

AFP, BULAWAYO: West Indies spinners Devendra Bishoo and Ashley Nurse took three wickets apiece before Sikandar Raza's unbeaten fifty gave Zimbabwe a fighting chance in Friday's one-day international at Queens Sports Club. Bishoo and Nurse took a combined 6 for 57 in 20 overs as they reduced Zimbabwe to 89 for seven, but Raza fought back with an unbeaten 76 and marshaled the tail well to guide Zimbabwe to 218 for eight in a match reduced to 49 overs per side by rain. Zimbabwe won the toss and elected to bat first in a game that they needed to win to qualify for Sunday's triangular series final, and made a sturdy enough start to their innings as they reached 48 for one in 11 overs.
