Zimbabwe vs Windies, 1st Test: Devendra Bishoo took five wickets haul, West Indies get the lead.

Batting a second time, West Indies seemed to have figure out a lesson after collapsed in the first inning, Powell was positive before being cleaned up by Cremer. Brathwaite and Kyle Hope have shown plenty of patience, but haven't allowed the bad ball go unpunished. As the partnership increase, there was a sense that Zimbabwe was feeling down. At stumps, the pair has taken the overall lead to 148 runs. Cremer and Company have a big task on their hands if the hosts are to make a comeback.

The visitors have wrested the initiative back after starting the day on the back-foot. Zimbabwe started well and was well balanced towards a big score, despite the early loss of Solomon Mire. A good total of 91/1, the hosts looked primed aggressive towards a big first innings score and a sizable lead as well. Masakadza was dismissed by a beauty from Bishoo, and then Taylor played a poor shot. The visiting bowlers were disciplined, but they were helped by the largesse of the host's batsmen. 91/1 became 159 all-out in no time and the advantage had well and truly been squandered. Bishoo finished with a five-wicket haul, Holder took two wickets and so did Roach.
