00:05Zimbabwe.
00:07But the Zimbabweans ensured the start wasn't perfect as Brandon King fell early.
00:12Shimran Hetmeier has flourished batting a 3 and made use of a life when on 9.

00:26But that's when Hetmeier displayed his purple patch with the bat.

01:41He's so good.

01:48to 101 for seven.
