Record for Coventry as Zimbabwe bat first against Bangladesh


BULAWAYO : Zimbabwe made 312 for eight wickets batting first in the fourth One-Day International against Bangladesh here on Sunday with Charles Coventry equalling the best ever individual score.

The 26-year-old Coventry made 194 not out from 156 balls hitting 16 fours and seven sixes. His total equalled the all-time ODI record set by Pakistan's Saeed Anwar which had stood for 12 years.

Zimbabwe, who went into the match 1-2 down in the five-match series, won the toss and elected to bat first.
