Zimbabwe win first Test against Bangladesh by three wickets

Zimbabwe won the first of two Tests against the hosts Bangladesh by three wickets Wednesday, with pacer Blessing Muzarabani taking nine wickets in the game to secure a decisive win on the fourth day.

The visitors scored 174-7 for a winning start to their long Test season after Muzarabani's inspired 6-74 helped restrict the hosts to 255 and opener Brian Bennett hit his second fifty of the game to help reach the target in Sylhet.
