Pakistan Shaheens penalised for ball tampering against Zimbabwe Select

Pakistan Shaheens were penalized for ball tampering by umpire, Iknow Chaabi, during the sixth one-day against Zimbabwe Select on Saturday in Harare.

The hosts were awarded five runs for the offence by Shaheens. Despite the controversy surrounding the tampering incident, the focus of the match shifted towards the outstanding performance by Zimbabwe Select's batters.

Craig Ervine's impressive 195-run innings, with valuable assistance from Innocent Kaia's 92, propelled Zimbabwe Select to an enormous score of 385/7.

The Pakistan Shaheens' bowlers struggled to contain the Zimbabwean batsmen throughout the innings. Mohammad Ali and Aamer Jamal managed to take two wickets each. However, Shahnawaz Dahani endured a difficult day, conceding 105 runs in his allotted 10 overs.

Despite the setback of the tampering penalty, the Pakistan Shaheens will need to regroup and devise a strong batting strategy to chase down the formidable total set by Zimbabwe Select.
