Pakistan were floundering at 182 for eight before tailenders Saeed Ajmal and Junaid Khan added an aggressive 67 for the ninth wicket to enable the tourists to finish the day on 249 for nine. Opening bowlers Tendai Chatara and Tinashe Panyangara, who went into the match with only five Test caps between them, started the Pakistan slide with some disciplined bowl- ing at the start of the day. They were well backed up by off-spinner Prosper Utseya and medium-pacer Shingi Masakadza. But Chatara and Panyangara were guilty of some loose bowling with the second new ball as Ajmal (49 not out) and Junaid (17) gave the Pakistan innings some respectability. Junaid was out to the fifth ball of the final over of the day when he flashed at Panyangara and was caught behind. Azhar Ali, who made a patient 78 off 185 balls, and captain Misbah-ul-Haq (53) were the only Pakistan top-order batsmen to shine. They put on 93 for the fourth wicket. Hamilton Masakadza, standing in for regu- lar captain Brendan Taylor, was justified in his decision to send Pakistan in as the tourists lost their first three wickets for 27 runs inside the first hour, with both Chatara and Panyangara HARARE: Pakistan batsman Saeed Ajmal (right) plays a shot during the opening day of the first Test Marc Gasol taking advantage of early life in the pitch. match between Pakistan and hosts Zimbabwe. —AFP Chatara struck first when Mohammad Spain seeks third straight Hafeez was caught at second slip off a ball second and final Test in Bulawayo. career in England and Graeme Cremer’s which lifted sharply.
