Update - Bangladesh 260 for 9 (50 overs, Bashar 78, Saqibul Hassan 61)

Put into bat by the Prosper Utseya at the picturesque Harare Sports Club ground, Bashar and Fakib al Hassan put on 105 for the fourth wicket, says an AFP report.

"Bashar, who began cautiously, scored his runs off 87 balls and struck seven fours to record his 13th half-century. He was dropped when on 70 by bowler Gary Brent. Al Hassan's half century was his second and it came off 74 balls with six fours

"Bangladesh began steadily with their first three wickets falling for 93 at a run-rate of just under five an over, leaving the innings in the balance. Zimbabwe's fielding was sharp but their bowling none too accurate. Only about 500 spectators were at the ground with Zimbabweans showing very little interest in cricket despite 14 years with official Test status."
