Zimbabwe beat West Indies by four wickets at Harare Sports Club on 27 September to level the series at one match each, three days after West Indies had won the first one day international by 99 runs.
It is Zimbabwe’s first win over West Indies in a Women’s One Day International, and the two countries have played only two of them.

West Indies were all out for 139 in 39.3 overs. Nyasha Gwanzura took four wickets for 33 runs from her ten overs, Michelle Mavunga three for 36, Francisca Chipare two for 16 and Olinder Chare the other one.
Stafanie Taylor made 47 and Hayley Matthews 26. Matthews had made 182 in the first match, a West Indies record.
Zimbabwe reached 140 for six. Modester Mupachikwa made 38, Josephine Nkomo and Kelis Ndhlovu 30 each, and Gwanzura finished 18 not out. Ashmini Munisar took two for 15.
