Series: Ireland tour of Zimbabwe, 2025 Venue: Queens Sports Club, Bulawayo Date & Time: Feb 06-Feb 1010:00 AM LOCAL
IRE 260 & 298
ZIM 267 & 228
Ireland won by 63 runs
PLAYER OF THE MATCH
Andy McBrine

The Trophy is given to Balbirnie and he then poses with the rest of his mates for the cameras. They are all smiles. Their third win in a row while Zimbabwe have not won a Test since 2020-21 when they beat Afghanistan. They now have gone 10 Tests without a win. That signs off things from this game. On behalf of Anurag Hegde and Sreenivas Varala, this is me signing off. Hope you have enjoyed our coverage of this game. We will be back with more cricket soon. Do join us then. For now bye bye.

Andy Balbirnie | Ireland captain: Yeah, very rewarding. Test cricket is tough. Bit of weather yesterday, felt like at home with the support?we got. We managed to do it a couple of times in the last year in Tests. The bowlers stuck out really well and all our seamers worked hard, Humphreys with a career-best. To keep them just seven ahead in the first innings was a big plus. [on three wins in a row] It's amazing, just waiting for the DVD to come out, we don't know?when our next Test is, waiting for that. Credit to the players and the coaching team for the long winter and prep in Dubai. Our guys have been brought up on one-day and T20 cricket but they prepared well. They are skillful players and they have adapted so well, sometimes it won't go our way but that's fine as long as we are trying.

Johnathan Campbell | Zimbabwe captain: Blessing bowled really well?up front. Lots of ifs and buts but we did not bat well in the 1st innings to get a big lead. Credit to the bowlers, they bowled well all Test match but we let it slip with the bat. There was a bit of cohesiveness missing in the team. Go and reflect individually, gave it away in the 2nd innings and will kick myself?for that. Hopefully I will get more opportunities at this level. [on Madhevere] Really fighting knock and credit goes to him. We have got exciting talent in Zimbabwe and we are not far off. They are a well-formed unit and McBrine did it again, have to find a way to get him out. Thanks to the Bulawayo crowd for coming out.

Andy McBrine | Player of the Match: Tried to keep it as simple as possible. Very tricky, the way Blessing bowled was quite outstanding. We have a history of a few partnerships and it actually worked out.

10:41 Local Time, 08:41 GMT, 14:11 IST: Fine Test and Ireland win the one-off game. Zimbabwe battled for most parts of the game and were even ahead on day 1, when they had the visitors 31/5 but 90 from Andy McBrine and 78 from Mark Adair rescued Ireland as they made 260 with Muzarabani taking a seven-fer. In reply Nick Welch made 90 and Muzarabani struck 47 at the end to give the hosts a 7-run lead. Ireland rode on Balbirnie's 66 and Tucker's 58 as they made 298 in the third innings. The target of 292 was always going to be tough for Zimbabwe and they were reduced to 40/4 before Bennett and Madhevere fought back. The latter was the last hope till he got out to Humphreys. The left-arm spinner took a six-fer and spun his side to a win also registering the best figures for an Irish bowler in Tests. A fine Test as it remained even for most parts before Ireland won it. Stay tuned for the post-match presentation...
