Richard Ngarava to Craig Young. Back of a length, wide outside off stump on the back foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on for 1 run, fielded by Burl. That concluded Ireland's innings, and they managed to post a respectable total for the hosts. Lorcan Tucker was the standout performer, contributing a solid score of 46. However, he did not receive much support from the other batters. Zimbabwe's bowlers were consistent and adhered to their fundamentals, taking wickets at regular intervals, with Trevor Gwandu leading the charge and claiming three wickets.
