Sri Lanka spinner Ajantha Mendis captured a
career-best 6-29 as the tourists edged Zimbabwe by two wickets to take
a 4-0 lead in the five-match one-day series here on Friday.
Mendis helped bowl out Zimbabwe for just 147 in 46.3 overs and they
seemed set fair for a comfortable victory, especially after Zimbabwe
had slumped to low scores of 124 and 67 all out in earlier matches.
But they endured an anxious afternoon as they just managed to
scramble over the line with eight wickets down, making a hard fought
150-8 in 47.3 overs.
