Zimbabwe made steady progress towards West Indies’ first innings total on the second morning at Queens Sports Club, but a productive spell from legspinner Devendra Bishoo lifted the visitors.

Zimbabwe lost an adventurous Solomon Mire inside the first hour, Bishoo then dealt a double-blow with the dismissals of Hamilton Masakadza and Brendan Taylor, in his comeback innings, to halt a brief recovery. Craig Ervine and Sean Williams remained firm, however, and Zimbabwe went to lunch at 101 for 3.
