HARARE: Pakistan won the toss and decided to bowl against Zimbabwe in series decider at Harare Sports Club Monday. Wicket-keeper batsman Sarfraz Ahmed is leading the Pakistani side in the last ODI. In the last game, Shoaib Malik's brilliant fightback was foiled by bad light as Zimbabwe beat Pakistan by five runs on the Duckworth-Lewis method to level three-match series at 1-1.

A tall target looked well beyond Pakistan when Zimbabwe's seamers reduced them to 56 for five, and after Graeme Cremer removed Mohammad Rizwan to make that 76 for six, the game appeared to be up. However Aamer Yamin along with Shoaib Malik counter-attacked in a brilliant 111-run stand for the seventh wicket, with the pair riding their luck as Zimbabwe dropped a series of catches.

Shoaib Malik and Aamer Yamin proved their capacity. At the same, several other players blundered profusely. Watch this report on the mistakes in an ODI match against Zimbabwe on October 3. Story first published: 4th October 2015
