Zimbabwe vs Ireland: Rain spoils play in deciding ODI as teams share trophy

The one-day international decider between Zimbabwe and Ireland in Harare on Monday was abandoned due to rain, declared a no-result and the series drawn 1-1.

Zimbabwe captain Craig Ervine won the toss, opted to bat and his side made 55-1 in 13 overs when play was halted, never to resume.

The home team won a rain-affected first match by three wickets and lost the second by 46 runs. Zimbabwe won the preceding Twenty20 series 2-1.

Harry Tector was named player of the series for his 176 runs in two games.

Ireland skipper Paul Stirling said that it was a fair result but was disappointed that they couldn’t play the 3rd ODI. He is also expecting his team to put up a good performance against Bangladesh.
