Mixed blessings as batter's injury mars Zimbabwe win

Zimbabwe's next match is against Australia on Friday.

Zimbabwe's pace attack blew away Oman. Blessing Muzarabani picked 3-16 in four overs, Richard Ngarava 3-17 and Brad Evans 3-18.

Oman were 5-27 in seven overs, crossed 100 in the final over, and were dismissed with a ball to spare. Vinay Shukla top-scored with 28 off 21 — just three batters reached double figures.

Zimbabwe chased down the win in a hurry. Brian Bennett was 48 not out off 36 balls, including seven boundaries. Taylor scored 31 off 30 when he retired hurt, hobbling off.

With Australia yet to enter the fray - they play Ireland on Tuesday - Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka lead Group B with a win apiece.
