Zimbabwe started off the five-match ODI series against hosts Sri Lanka with a thumping six-wicket win on Friday (June 30). What makes the win stunning is the fact that it came only days after they became the first Full Member nation to lose an ODI to Scotland. Set a record target of 317, Zimbabwe got there with more than two overs to spare thanks the maiden ODI ton by Solomon Mire.
