BULAWAYO, Zimbabwe: Sean Williams smashed a career best unbeaten 78 as Zimbabwe levelled their One-Day international series against Bangladesh with a six-wicket victory yesterday. 

Put into bat by the hosts, Bangladesh rallied late in their innings to post 252 for nine wickets, a par score on a good batting track. Despite some jitters along the way, Zimbabwe chased down the runs with 13 balls to spare.

Zimbabwe were outclassed in the series opener at the same venue on Friday when they were thumped by 121 runs, but showed much more mettle in the second match.
