Debut for Campbell shines

With a brisk innings on debut, Johnathan Campbell, the son of former Zimbabwe captain Alistair, gave his team something to bowl at. Dropped on 1 - wicketkeeper Jaker Ali ran to square-leg but failed to catch Mahedi Hasan's miscued delivery - he hit three sixes and four fours in his 24-ball 45 and added 73 for the sixth wicket with Bennett.

Campbell hit Shoriful Islam for Zimbabwe's first six in the 13th over and Bennett smashed Taskin over midwicket in the 15th. Campbell then hit Rishad and Saifuddin for sixes in the next two overs before Bennett struck Shoriful straight down the ground in the 18th over.

After Campbell's dismissal, Bennett gave Zimbabwe a strong finish, hitting a four and a six as they took 18 off the final over. He finished with an unbeaten 44 off 29 balls as Zimbabwe closed on 138 for 7.
