Pakistan Academy cruised to an easy win over Zimbabwe Board XI in Harare yesterday, as the Board XI's 2nd innings ended just before tea on the final day with the side just over 200 runs short of their target. The writing was already on the wall by the end of the first day, when Pakistan eased their way to 330/6, lead by Ahmed Shehzad's 76. Prosper Tsvanhu had scored an early scalp when the visitors' captain Khurram Manzoor was caught behind on just 7, but that was pretty much the highlight of the opening day for the home side. Pakistan when on to reach 482/7 before declaring on day two to give the Zimbabweans their turn with the bat.

They managed to reach just 189 before succumbing, with only Bornaparte Mujuru (90*) putting up significant resistance. In their second innings, Pakistan again declared at 103/2 leave the Board XI to chase a target of 397, but their inexperienced side wasn't up to the task. Tafadzwa Kamungozi top-scored in the 2nd innings with 37.
