Ballance 137*, Mavuta 53 help Zimbabwe fight back before sporting declaration

123.2 to KR Mayers, Jaffa from Mavuta and Mayers is bowled through the gates! That was tossed up full outside off, Mayers looks to drive, but the ball turns in sharply and clatters onto the stumps. 373/2

127.4 to RA Reifer, Reifer has picked the lone fielder deep on the on-side! Oh, Reifer is livid with himself. Was an absolute long-hop outside off. He goes back and drills the pull. Gets excellent connection but no elevation. Kaia steadies himself at deep midwicket and takes it reverse-cup.. 383/3

129.1 to J Blackwood, Massive top-edge and the wicket-keeper takes it with ease! Blackwood continues to go for his shots, but Mavuta bowls this very smartly. Tossed up outside off. Blackwood once again tries for the sweep, but the line means he has to fetch it form outside off. Can only get a massive top edge as the keeper runs around and takes it.. 389/4

133.2 to RL Chase, Edged and Mavuta gets his fourth wicket. Fullish in length just outside off. There was a bit of width and Chase goes after it. He cuts it, but can only get a thick edge that flies to slip, who takes a god catch to his right. The ball was travelling there.. 413/5

141.1 to JO Holder, Five-for for Mavuta and hasn’t he deserved it! On a length spinning away from Holder outside off. Was quite slow as well. Holder gets half-forward looking to push it. Can only get a thin edge and the keeper hangs on to a good catch.. 435/6
