Ireland vs Zimbabwe 2nd ODI
Second game between Zimbabwe and Ireland is in progress and after 12 overs Zimbabwe are 55/2. Zimbabwe have won first ODI and Ireland must win today's game to keep the series alive. Brian Bennett who scored 168 runs in first ODI and Craig Ervine who scored 68 runs both are out today. Ireland have got 2 big wickets and they must make sure that Zimbabwe will not give a target of around 250 otherwise it will be difficult for Ireland to win the game.

Zimbabwe are batting first (as Ireland put them into bat) and they have made 136 for three wickets loss. The start wasn't so good for Zimbabwe today as they have already lost two wickets. However Wessly Madhevere and Sikandar Raza are making some valuable runs and are in good partnership. Zimbabwe can still make a good total provided the current players plays for another 7 to 8 overs and Zimbabwe have a strong finish. A win today for Zimbabwe would mean a series win for them.
