Toss: Scotland.

Zimbabwe Academy looked to be on course for a decent total after Ryan Kamwemba (57) and Kian Blignaut (34) shared a second wicket stand of 86 to take them to 94 for 1. However, the wheels came off in spectacular fashion as they lost their last nine wickets for just 47 to implode to 141 all out with 15 overs unused. There were four wickets for Chris Greaves, three for Safyaan Sharif and two for Jasper Davidson in an impressive display by the Scots' attack. The chase was always going to be routine despite four wickets for spinner Brendon Senzere. Good time in the middle for Finlay McCreath, Chris Greaves, Brandon McMullen and Chris McBride. That sets the Scots up well for their upcoming games against Zimbabwe A.

Scotland piled on the runs with Matthew Cross thumping 6 sixes and 4 fours in an opening stand of 129 with Mark Watt, who also made a half century. Finlay McCreath weighed in with a breezy cameo of 30 as the tourists made an imposing 194 for 5. The first half of the chase has Scots well in control with a wicket each for Mark Watt, Jasper Davidson and Chris Greaves. In the end a very routine 66-run win for Scotland as Greaves and Watt double up. There will be sterner challenges ahead for Scotland in the week ahead.

A rain delay meant a 19 overs match and a fine bowling display by Scotland restricted Zimbabwe Academy to 105 for 6. Two wickets for Olly Davidson and one apiece for Brandon McMullen, Charlie Cassell and Chris Greaves. Effortless chase with runs for openers Matthew Cross (32*), and Mark Watt (26), allied with a quickfire 27 from Brandon McMullen. Zimbabwe Academy will be hoping for better fortunes in the afternoon game.
