19.4: Shakib Al Hasan to Richard Ngarava, OUT! TIMBER! Zimbabwe fall heart-breakingly short. That is probably what Wellington Masakadza did not want Richard Ngarava to do! Short ball, around off, Ngarava swings for the heavens and misses. The ball crashes onto the stumps and you have got to feel for the visitors. So near, yet so far. I remember my ex-colleague covering a WI-Pak Test match where Shannon Gabriel did all the hard work of staying with Roston Chase to try and draw the Test. Only, to see Gabriel swing wildly across to Yasir on the last ball of the penultimate over (which turned out to be the last) and have West Indies lose that match. Same feeling. Dhaka won't mind as Bangladesh win by 5 runs and go 4-0 up!
