Ghulam maiden ton, bowlers help Pakistan fixing series

Kamran Ghulam's Maiden ODI hundred and a clinical bowling execution saw Pakistan straightforwardness to a 99-run win in Bulawayo. The triumph sees Pakistan seal the series 2-1, their second continuous dig out from a deficit ODI series win after comparable progress in Australia recently. Pakistan posted 303 after a consistent beginning from the openers, with Abdullah Shafique scoring his fifth 50 years, while messiness at the passing from Zimbabwe assisted Pakistan with pillaging 69 from the last five overs. Accordingly, there was restricted meaningful opposition beside a Craig Ervine 50 years, and with no other person ready to push on, Pakistan kept on reinforcing their situation until the objective became unassailable, with the innings enveloped with 40.1 overs. While downpour had been estimate for now, the skies were clear when Pakistan won the throw and picked to bat. While they didn't exactly engine along at the lightning pace they had set on Tuesday, Saim Ayub and Shafique got Pakistan looking lively so far, raising the 50-organization inside 11 overs. In any case, Ayub fell not long after miscuing his brand name shot as he got Faisal Akram over profound in reverse square leg, directly to Clive Madande on the limit. Ghulam was dubious from the beginning, almost breaking one straight back to Sean Williams off his eighth ball. At the point when Williams hauled one down the accompanying over, however, Ghulam pummeled it over profound midwicket for six, and that appeared to let loose him. Close by Shafique, he assisted Pakistan with ticking over at a consistent, if unremarkable rate, and the 100 came up in 22 overs. Sikandar Raza broke that stand before long, however, catching Shafique in front as he miscued his compass, just after he got to his 50 years. Rizwan and Ghulam consolidated to assemble the biggest organization of the innings, however even as conditions for batting straightened out, the expected increase in the scoring rate didn't follow. Rizwan, specifically, drifted at a strike pace of a little more than 50 off his initial 25 balls, passing on Ghulam to push through the pinion wheels. He started to appreciate Brian Bennett, driving him out of the assault in the wake of taking 27 off his two overs. Zimbabwe ruled the guests back again with Williams and Akram before Raza made his side the leap forward. Rizwan had flung him for six over lengthy on off a miscue, and when he attempted it once more off the following conveyance, Dion Myers had a straightforward catch. Ghulam, at this point, was driving along to three figures. Akram was dispatched for progressive limits before a long bounce from Raza was taken care of to midwicket to raise the ton. Zimbabwe were at last taking steps to speed up however Richard Ngarava eliminated Ghulam straight after trying to fix them back once more. It was the 46th over that the wheels at long last fell off for Zimbabwe. The Akram over saw six wides, a no-ball, two fours and a six as 23 chilled out, and Pakistan unexpectedly peered toward 300. In any event, Gift Muzarabani wasn't saved, taken for 24 in his last two overs as Pakistan squeezed over the 300 imprint, taking all the energy with them to the break. Pakistan expected to stand by till simply the third over to strike, doing so two times in Ayub's finished. Joylord Gumbie and Myers each holed out trying to keep the run rate up, and it was a methodology Zimbabwe endured with even as wickets fell at ordinary spans. Tadiwanashe Marumani didn't keep going long however was contentious the length of he did, and was awful to be given out leg before off Abrar Ahmed with the ball probably going down leg. Sean Williams got the run-scoring twirly doo momentarily, taking the assault to Agha Salman and Abrar after the finish of the first powerplay, while Ervine slapped Haris Rauf for a couple of limits in what arose as a threatening organization for Pakistan. However, similar to each Zimbabwean organization, it finished far and away too early to permit them to fabricate any genuine tension. Williams was finished by additional speed from Haris as he hacked on, and it would stamp the beginning of a Zimbabwean slide. The greatest panic Pakistan got was from abruptly combining mists before the twentieth over had been bowled, however on the pitch, wickets were starting to fall in bunches. Zimbabwe were all the while getting limits essentially every over, with Ervine raising his 50 years with a miscued clear off Faisal Akram. Pakistan 303 for 6 (Ghulam 103, Shafique 50, Raza 2-47) beat Zimbabwe 204 (Ervine 51, Bennett 37, Ayub 2-29) by 99 runs
