3.6 Dushmantha Chameera to Milton Shumba

0

Dushmantha Chameera to Milton Shumba. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to cover for no runs, fielded by Fernando. Unfortunately, the game has been called off as the rain played spoilsport here in Colombo. Madushanka picked up two wickets in his second over as the hosts went off in a dominating position. Zimbabwe will be very happy with this result given the state of the game and will try to rectify their blunders in the next match. Join us for the second ODI of this series on Monday.
