Zimbabwe have won the toss and have opted to bat

Hello and welcome to the coverage of this 2nd Test between Zimbabwe and the West Indies. We're building up to what we hope will be another well contested test match. The first game saw Zimbabwe claw their way back in after the visitors posted a mammoth total on the backs of big hundreds from Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Kraigg Brathwaite. An impressive and gritty hundred from Gary Ballance meant that Zimbabwe, despite losing their way early, found themselves in a position to make a bold declaration. Unfortunately though, too much time was lost to rain and despite the West Indies having a go at Zimbabwe on the final evening trying to bowl them out, the hosts managed to hold out as the game ended in a draw. So it's the game and series on the line as we head into this 2nd and final Test. Stick around, toss and team info coming shortly.
