Chamu Chibhabha starred with bat and ball to help Zimbabwe level up their five-match one-day series with Afghanistan at 2-2 in Sharjah.

After failing to score in each of his two knocks so far in this series, Chibhabha finally come to the fore with 53 while fellow opener Peter Moor, himself dismissed for a duck two days ago, weighed in with 52 to lay a solid platform that allowed Zimbabwe to make 226 before they were dismissed in the final over.

Chibhabha then returned format-best figures of four for 25 with the ball - and claimed the key wicket of Mohammad Shahzad when he was five short of a half-century - as Zimbabwe bowled Afghanistan out for 161 to clinch a 65-run success and set up a winner-takes-all match for the series on Wednesday.
