Mohammad Amir to Elton Chigumbura. Length ball, middle stump on the front foot cutting, to deep point for 1 run, fielded by Ali.
Zimbabwe finish on 162-4 which looks about par on this wicket. Solomon Mire will take all of the plaudits for his record breaking 94 at the top of the order. He was helped by a quick 33 from Musakanda with their partnership adding 64. Pakistan have a tough task on their hands if they are to chase this down and book their spot in the final.

Tiny bit of width and Sarfraz runs it down to third man to give Pakistan the win by seven wickets. They made the run chase look very easy with every batsmen coming in and making starts.

For Zimbabwe it turned out they were a few runs short but they battled to the end, unfortunately though they can't make the final after suffering their third defeat.
