| fifth and final odi Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bat in the fifth and final one-day international against Zimbabwe on Thursday. Zimbabwe named an unchanged side for the match, while Sri Lanka brought back captain Marvan Atapattu, left-arm paceman Nuwan Zoysa and off-spinner Muttiah Muralitharan. Wicketkeeper Kumar Sangakkara, who has a minor knee injury, fast bowler Dilhara Fernando and left-arm spinner Rangana Herath have been left out. Sri Lanka lead the series 4-0. Zimbabwe selected an inexperienced squad for the series after 15 players refused to play in a dispute with the country's cricket union. Teams: Zimbabwe: Stuart Matsikenyeri, Brendan Taylor, Mluleki Nkala, Dion Ebrahim, Tatenda Taibu (captain), Elon Chigumbura, Alester Maregwede, Prosper Utseya, Tawanda Mupariwa, Douglas Hondo, Tinsahe Panyangara. Sri Lanka: Saman Jayantha, Marvan Atapattu (captain), Mahela Jayawardene, Russel Arnold, Tillakaratne Dilshan, Thilina Kandamby, Upul Chandana, Farveez Maharoof, Nuwan Zoysa, Muttiah Muralitharan. 147/5 ! I'm a bit excited now. And that is Taibu's first international wicket, and he is enjoying it. Into the rabbits now.

| hi RMJ again panyangara manages a wkt and though expensive - not bad considering. mupariwa too does well. not at all impressed that taibu´s bowling (just keep wkt and show some faith)- but glad he got a couple. nice to be 17 overs in without loss and at an acceptable run rate - go lads. i know matsikenyeri has it in him (he must be suppoted, that´s all). no spinner - which to me is a big disappointment. |
