So, that's it then for the first ODI. Join us for the second ODI on Thrusday. Until then goodbye and take care.
19:21 Local Time, 18:21 GMT, 23:51 IST: Ireland win this thriller to take a 1-0 lead in the series. Stirling and Andrew Balbirnie got the ball rolling for Ireland. They stitched together a 105-run partnership which laid the platform for the chase. Stirling parted ways with Balbirnie on 59 but the latter was determined. He paced his innings brilliantly and scored a magnificent ton to bring his country close to the victory. When everything was going Ireland's way, Balbirnie got run-out. And that opened up the doors for Zimbabwe. But Adair who earlier in the day took 4 wickets with the ball was superb with the bat too. His 21 runs cameo in just 13 balls took Ireland over the line.
Jarvis to Getkate, FOUR, Getkate hits the winning runs on his debut and Ireland win this encounter by 4 wickets with 9 balls to spare. It was on a fuller length and was wide of off, Getkate went after it, it clipped the outside edge, landed short of Taylor and went through him for a boundary to third man
Jarvis to Getkate, no run, driven to the off-side, straight to the bowler. Another dot-ball. This is getting interesting
Jarvis to Getkate, no run, short of length delivery down the leg-side, Getkate leaves it alone and it flew to keeper. That was a clear wide but umpire thought it otherwise
