Zimbabwe A's warm-up game against Mumbai ahead of their Duleep Trophy matches has ended in a draw, although the game was shortened to two days as a result of the Zimbabwe team's late arrival in India.

Mumbai won the toss and elected to bat, posting 235 runs for six wickets. Graeme Cremer was the pick of the Zimbabwe A bowlers, claiming four wickets for 60 runs in 17 overs. In their innings, Zimbabwe A made 470 for six. Dion Ebrahim was 103 not out and Brendan Taylor 100, also unbeaten. The duo of middle order batsmen Terrence Duffin and Hamilton Masakadza made 88 and 66 runs respectively as Zimbabwe A batted throughout the day yesterday.

Coach Kevin Curran was pleased with the result:

"It was a good warm-up game for us. A big score like that is what we have been looking for and so I am happy that my batsmen played the way they did."
