Zimbabwe seal Sylhet thriller to complete first away Test win since 2021
Zimbabwe 273 (Williams 59, Bennett 57, Mehidy 5-52, Rana 3-74) and 174 for 7 (Bennett 54, Curran 44, Mehidy 5-50) beat Bangladesh 191 (Mominul 56, Shanto 40, Masakadza 3-21, Muzarabani 3-50) and 255 (Shanto 60, Jaker 58, Muzarabani 6-72) by three wickets
Zimbabwe beat Bangladesh by three wickets in an exciting finish on the fourth evening of the first Test in Sylhet to go 1-0 up in the two-match series. It was Zimbabwe's fifth overseas Test victory, which came after they completed their highest successful chase in the fourth innings.
It was also their first win in the last 11 Tests and each of their last three wins have come away from home.
Blessing Muzarabani was the architect of the victory with a nine-wicket match haul, but it needed Wessly Madhevere and No. 9 Richard Ngarava to push Zimbabwe over the line after they collapsed when needing less than 50 runs in their chase.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz orchestrated the collapse when he picked up his second five-wicket haul in the Test.
