14:43 Local Time, 08:43 GMT, 14:13 IST: That late burst has given Zimbabwe some hope of getting back into the Test. Shadman's 2nd Test hundred had until then kept the hosts in control, but he was one amongst three batters to fall in that session. Still, they added 100 more runs and have brought the deficit down to a meagre 22 runs. Zimbabwe bowlers struggled to find the ideal line and lengths and gave away too many boundary scoring opportunities. They might well concede a lead here, but they'll hope to chip away and minimise that lead as much as possible. Back at 3 pm for the final session of Day 2.
