Azweer : "On the verge of history! If Brian Bennett gets this hundred, he becomes only the 2nd Zimbabwean ever (after Dave Houghton, 1992) to score a Test century on captaincy debut--and the 2nd youngest captain in World Test history to do so after Shakib Al Hasan."

Ziaur Rahman to Bennett, FOUR runs
Short and wide outside off, angling away. Bennett, eager to reach the three-figure mark, extends his arms and hops to get on top of the bounce, flaying it aerially past deep backward point for a boundary. All smiles from Brian Bennett as he brings up a century on his Test captaincy debut!

A historic landmark for Craig Ervine! A massive round of applause erupts from both dugouts as the fielders walk in to shake his hand and offer warm congratulations. It is a maiden Test double hundred for Craig Ervine, striking 23 fours and 2 sixes. Showing an incredible display of concentration, he is on cloud nine with a beaming smile across his face. With this knock, he becomes the third-oldest player to score a Test double century, following in the footsteps of Eric Rowan and Jack Hobbs. Facing a length ball, he hangs back and punches it firmly through the covers, comfortably piercing the gap to reach the milestone!
