       Zimbabwe wins by three wickets

Match State: Zimbabwe wins by three wickets

       Zimbabwe striving to revive a dead game, and nearly doing so
       From 181/3 in 40 overs with 19 more runs to get, the middle order
        lost their way completely
       Off to the presentation ceremony
       The losing captain Odumbe coms up
       Zimbabwe bowled very well in the middle overs and we had an
        unfortunate collapse too
       It got very exciting towards the end but Goodwin batted well
       Campbell comes up
       Receives the winner's cheque
       We had it in control and then we lost it with 25 runs to get
       We thought 250/260 was gettable but the pitch had more turn than we
        expected
       Goodwin has struggled for a long time but he's done well today
       Quite a dramatic finish, I thinkt he guys forgot that there were
        only 25 to get
       We're confident of winning the remaining games, including South
        Africa
       5 commentators adjudicated the MoM, so its difficult to see how
        they would have arrived at a consensus
       Shah, Goodwin and FLower would be in the reckoning
       But it really has to be Goodwin, and it is Goodwin who is the Man
        of the Match
       For the zillionth time we get to know that Goodwin had his
        preliminary cricket training in Australia
       Goodwin says he just wanted to hang in there and then get the runs
