48.5Fisher to T ChivangaW
Wicket. OUT! Caught. Matt Fisher to Tanaka Chivanga. Reverse Swing-In length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to short extra cover, caught by Santner. That's it! New Zealand delivered a dominant bowling performance, dismissing Zimbabwe for just 125 runs. Matt Henry and Zak Foulkes were exceptional in dismantling the Zimbabwean batting order with precision and discipline. Brendon Taylor was the standout player for Zimbabwe, top-scoring with a gritty 44 runs, but he received little support from the rest of the team. In the end, Tafadwa Tsiga contributed some valuable runs. Overall, it was a clinical performance in the field from New Zealand, who will be pleased with their efforts. Stay tuned for New Zealand's response as they look to take firm control of the match.
