In their last game on Monday, Ireland defeated Zimbabwe by a score of 46 runs to tie the one-day international series. In the first innings, the batsmen Stephen Doheny and Paul Stirling combined for 104 runs, with Doheny going on to score 84 runs before being removed by Ryan Burl. Ireland reached 294 for seven thanks to Harry Tector's 75 from 61 balls, and Zimbabwe struggled to catch up after Josh Little claimed the first of his four wickets by lbwing Tadiwanashe Marumani on the opening ball of the innings.
Despite half-centuries from fellow opener Innocent Kaia and former England batsman Gary Ballance, Ireland captured five wickets in the final 10 overs to bowl the hosts out with 15 balls remaining. The absence of injured skipper Craig Ervine hurt Zimbabwe's batting lineup.
