That's the series done. But still there's an ODI and three T20Is to follow on this tour. We will be there to bring you all the action. Do join us for those games. In the meanwhile, do switch tabs to see a couple of other international games going on currently with both India and Pakistan in action in different parts of the world. Until next time, this is a goodbye and tada from Abhinand, Kumar A Das and Siva. Remember to sleep tight, stay safe and be well in these difficult times. Alvida!
Tamim: "Restricting them to 240 was a decent job by the bowlers. The wicket was playing quite nicely in the first innings compared the previous game and I was happy to chase 241. Too many soft dismissals today but the way Shakib and Saifuddin batted was nice to see."
Shakib: "Today was the day I had to put my hands up, very happy... it wasn't easy and credit to Saifuddin for the way he played. He showed a lot of composure. If I compare the wicket to the first ODI, today it was a bit slower and it wasn't easy for the batsmen to score runs. One had to take chances to score and by taking chances, we lost some wickets."
Shakib is the Man of the Match and richly deserved for his all-round performance
Brendan Taylor: "A much improved performance today. Bangladesh didn't really?look like they were panicking, they held their nerve nicely and experienced players generally get over the line. I am happy with the boys the way they've come back from the last performance. When you are wanting to bat 50 overs, you could get caught up with dot balls. We can be a bit proactive for sure. That's something we'll address tomorrow."
17:18 Local Time, 15:18 GMT, 20:48 IST: A smile on the face of Shakib as he exchanges pleasantries with Muzarabani. The experienced campaigner has pulled off another game for his side with a cool composed 96. Thoroughly deserved four more runs but he will not mind one bit for the series is sealed 2-0 with one game to go. Even as wickets fell at one end, Shakib stood tall and judged the chase to perfection. Good contribution from Saifuddin as well just when it looked like the hosts would isolate Shakib at one end. Zimbabwe tried well but were let down with some ordinary bowling and fielding. 15 runs if I count at the top of my head were given away via wides or fumbles and that ultimately proved to be the difference. Maybe in hindsight, playing a regular spinner in place of one of the seamers on this Harare wicket could have been handy. All that is in the past now as we wait for the presentation. Do hang around...
Muzarabani to Shakib, FOUR, Shakib has done it! He does a Dhoni. No celebrations. Like the former Indian captain. So unlike the Shakib we saw in the DPL! That's good to see. Bangladesh have won the series as well. This was angled across on a back of a length outside off, Shakib steered it late and got it wide of third man. Placed in the gap where the deep point couldn't get there as well. Shakib finishes unbeaten on 96
Chatara to Saifuddin, FOUR, Chatara is aghast. The thick inside edge runs away past Muzarabani at short fine and into the fence. Well bowled though, was the yorker, right up there, and Saifuddin moving around in the crease got lucky. Well wide of the tall pacer. That should be the game now
7 off 7 now
Chatara to Shakib, 1 run, excellent yorker on the stumps, Shakib digs it out wide of backward point
Chatara to Saifuddin, 1 run, Chatara follows Saifuddin and bowls the cutter to the batsman who was advancing, nudged around the corner to short fine
Chatara to Saifuddin, no run, slower delivery outside off, pushed to cover where the fielder is in quickly and there's no runs on offer
This is Bangladesh's game to lose from here.
Chatara to Shakib, 1 run, full and speared in, driven to extra-cover. Another run taken
Chatara to Saifuddin, 1 run, good piece of fielding from mid-off who is Jongwe but a wayward throw means they make a tight single easily. The strike is back with Shakib now
Now round the wicket is Chatara
Chatara to Saifuddin, wide, poor from the experienced Chatara. Slips the slower delivery down leg. Can't bowl those especially now
Boris: It might be raining sixes at Headingley but I think this kind of stuff here is what true cricket is all about.
Tendai Chatara [6.0-1-43-0] is back into the attack
Shubham Singh: Zimbabwe has been able to snatch a defeat I would say if they go on to lose this.
Muzarabani to Saifuddin, leg byes, 1 run, that clearly pitched outside leg, no way was that out. Hit on the pad and they sneak a legbye. Erasmus makes the easy call
13 off 13 now
