After being put into bat, Bangladesh slumped to 43 for five as Vitori, who finished with five for 30, ripped through the top order.

A sixth wicket stand of 105 between Shakib Al Hassan (53) and Mushfiqur Rahim (59) gave Bangladesh some hope but they were all out for 184. Zimbabwe lost captain Brendan Taylor in the fifth over but Vusi Sibanda struck a cultured 96 from 102 balls.
