Brilliant Burl a bundle of joy

ZIMBABWE national cricket team all-rounder Ryan Burl is pleased with his form after another man-of-the-match performance to help the Chevrons defeat visiting Ireland in the first of three one-day international (ODI) at Harare Sports Club on Wednesday.

Burl, who helped Zimbabwe clinch the T20 series after a brilliant display with both ball and bat, scored 53 runs as the hosts took the lead in the series.

The second match will be played at the same venue tomorrow.
