New Delhi. It is not known when cricket will change its course in a Test match. The same happened with Zimbabwe. The Zimbabwean team, which was moving towards a strong score against Ireland, suddenly got into a fall of wickets. The result was that a team which was in a strong position after scoring 193 runs for 4 wickets, collapsed for 210 runs. Zimbabwe lost its last 6 wickets by adding just 17 runs.
The test match between Zimbabwe and Ireland started on Thursday. This match is being played in Belfast. Ireland won the toss and chose to bowl first. At one point it seemed that their decision was wrong because Zimbabwe had scored 193 runs for 4 wickets. Then it seemed that Zimbabwe could score 350 or 400 runs. But this did not happen.
