Pace bowler Blessing Muzarabani took four wickets as Zimbabwe dismissed Afghanistan for 131 in the first Test at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Tuesday. Zimbabwe's fast bowlers made the most of the pacer-friendly conditions on offer as Muzarabani, Victor Nyauchi and Donald Tiripano took eight wickets between them.
Muzarabani struck with the very first ball of the match, dismissing Afghanistan opener Abdul Malik for a duck at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. Rahmat Shah, who is the only Afghanistan player to have scored a Test century, was next to go and he was deceived by a ball that moved away from him. He ended up edging the delivery to wicketkeeper Regis Chakabva.
