Zimbabwe 298 for 9 (Taibu 98, Ervine 85, Rao 4-57) beat Canada 123 (Surkari 26, Price 3-16, Cremer 3-31) by 175 runs
Zimbabwe’s spinners made sure a record third-wicket partnership between Tatenda Taibu and Craig Ervine didn’t go to waste, maintaining an asphyxiating grip on Canada’s batsmen to secure a 175-run win in Nagpur. Taibu and Ervine’s stand, which is Zimbabwe’s highest for the third wicket in ODIs and their fifth largest overall, helped their team recover from a decidedly shaky start to reach 298 for 8 on a good batting wicket. The slow bowlers took full control thereafter, sharing 37.1 overs and all ten wickets as Canada were bowled out in the 43rd over.
