On a length and on off, Brad Evans opens the bat face and guides it through backward point for a run.

FIVE WIDES! That will help Zimbabwe! Nathan Ellis errs in line and serves this full but down the leg side. Brad Evans fails to glance it away and the ball lands on a footmark and just shoots up. Josh Inglis has no chance as the ball goes over him and races to the fence behind for a boundary.

FOUR! A bit sloppy in the field! Dragged back and around leg, Wellington Masakadza rocks back and heaves it away towards deep square leg. Spencer Johnson moves to his right but fails to judge the spin and the ball goes past him for a boundary.

PUT DOWN! Spencer Johnson once again in the thick of things! Flighted, full and on middle, Wellington Masakadza goes for the sweep but gets a top edge. It flies towards deep square leg, where Spencer Johnson comes forward, but he is looking straight into the sun. The ball just drops on him and he stretches his arms out and grabs it with the ball on the top of his fingers. However, he is not celebrating, and his body language suggests this may have touched the ground. The third umpire sees different replays from various angles but is not convinced enough that the fingers are underneath the ball and deems that the ball bounced before going into the hands. Not Out pops up on the big screen.

Quicker, full and on middle, Brad Evans drills it to long on for a run.

WIDE! Flatter, short and around leg, Wellington Masakadza misses his flick. Wided.

OUT! LBW! That is a terrific review from Australia! Nathan Ellis lands this on a good length, on middle and leg. Wellington Masakadza stays back in his crease and tries to flick it away but the ball skids through and thuds him on the pads. It lobs up towards point as the batters cross. However, there is a big shout for LBW, but it is turned down. Ellis looks pretty confident and convinces his skipper, Mitchell Marsh, to take the review. The only thing here is whether it pitched in line or not. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved, and Ball Tracking shows that it has just pitched in line, and it is three reds, with the ball crashing into the leg stump. The on-field call is changed to Out. Australia are two wickets away from the win now.

Flatter, shortish and angling into leg, Brad Evans goes for the slog sweep again but gets a inside edge onto his pads again.

OUT! CAUGHT! That's probably the final nail in the coffin for Zimbabwe. Adam Zampa gets a wicket in his final over. He gives this one some more air, full and on middle, turns away as this is a leg-break. Brad Evans once again goes for a swipe across the line but can only manage a top edge. It goes up in the air towards short third man, where Spencer Johnson moves to his left and takes an easy catch. Australia just one wicket away from the win now.

Quicker one, on the pads, Blessing Muzarabani rocks back and looks to tuck it away but misses and gets hit on his pads. A loud appeal for LBW but the umpire tunrs it down.
