 Left-arm spinner Nauman Ali took five for 86 and left-arm fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi claimed four for 45 in the second innings. Chakabva batted aggressively in his 137-ball innings, hitting 13 fours and two sixes. He shared an attacking third wicket partnership of 79 with captain Brendan Taylor, who raced to 49 off 31 balls before being caught by wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan down the leg side off Afridi. Chakabva fell when he edged an attempted big hit off Nauman to Pakistan captain Babar Azam at slip. It was the start of a collapse in which six wickets fell for 35 runs. With Zimbabwe's last two batsmen at the wicket, the umpires allowed an extra half hour's play in order to try to achieve a result but called off play for bad light four overs into the extra time.
