Zimbabwe have put themselves in the driving seat for an ICC Cricket World Cup place having beaten Ireland by 107 runs in the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier Super Sixes match at the Harare Sports Club, where the bowlers came to the party.

Zimbabwe will now go to the top of the Super Sixes points table, edging out Scotland on net run-rate, while Ireland (two points) now trail Scotland (five points) and the West Indies (four points) in the race for a top-two spot and a place in the ICC CWC 2019.
