On Tuesday, Ben Curran's stellar unbeaten innings of 118 helped Zimbabwe secure a resounding nine-wicket victory against Ireland at the Harare Sports Club, clinching the One Day International series.
Despite a strong start from Ireland's opener Andy Balbirnie, who scored 61, Zimbabwe's Curran and Brian Bennett launched an aggressive response, amassing 77 runs in the first 10 overs. A brief rain delay interrupted their momentum.
After play resumed, Bennett was controversially given out, but captain Craig Ervine's 69 off 59 balls ensured Zimbabwe comfortably surpassed Ireland's 240-6 total.
