O’Brien was the top scorer with 60 off 41 balls, with Docral (33 *) scoring three boundaries in a row to seal the victory.

The third International T20 will be held on Wednesday, September 1.

Getkate and Marumani were exhausted before Zimbabwe beat Diane Myers 41-3.

Zimbabwe were in trouble when Craig Erwin (15) and Regis Chakabwa (10) were dismissed for 64.

However, unbeaten 88 points for Milton Schumba (46 *) and Ryan Berlin (37 *) helped the tourists to 152-5 in 20 overs.
