Mitchell Starc took three early wickets to help restrict Zimbabwe to 96 runs and Steve Smith posted an unbeaten 47 as Australia won the second one-day cricket international by eight wickets on Wednesday and clinched the three-match series. Starc (3-24) bowled three wides in a wild opening over but quickly recovered his line and length to remove the top order and have Zimbabwe reeling at 14 for three.
Allrounder Cameron Green held an outfield catch to remove Zimbabwe`s top scorer, Sean Williams for 29 off 45 deliveries, off Adam Zamper`s bowling and then took two wickets. Leg-spinner Zampa took the last two wickets as Zimbabwe was dismissed inside 28 overs.
